Dr HAINES (Indi) (14:16): My question is to the Minister for Water Resources, Drought, Rural Finance, Natural Disaster and Emergency Management. The minister today wrote in an opinion piece, 'Our drought strategy is clear.' But this morning, Fiona Simpson, president of the NFF, said: 'Unfortunately, Australia remains without a national drought strategy. Like many farmers around the country, I am bamboozled.' Can the minister clarify: does the government actually have a drought strategy, and is the strategy the minister referred to the one the NFF doesn't agree exists—a strategy which was written in 1992, when the minister himself was 16 years old?
