Senator BOB BROWN (Tasmania—Leader of the Australian Greens) (14:25): I may give the time for the minister to inform the Senate, as he was about to, of the particular line item for $300,000. What is it to be expended on? Can the minister say when he will be announcing any further financial assistance— Senator Ian Macdonald: Why don't you sort this out at your Monday morning meetings? Senator BOB BROWN: I am being interrupted, Mr President. The PRESIDENT: Continue. You will be given time to answer your question. Senator BOB BROWN: The other part of my question is to ask what other measures the government has in mind in terms of funding. The PRESIDENT: Senator Brown, I did not understand those last few words. Senator BOB BROWN: I asked what other measures the government has in mind in funding that agreement. The PRESIDENT: I think there might be something wrong with your microphone. Opposition senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: I will not take technical advice from those who are not in charge. I can only go from those who have some command of the system; I do not. If there is something wrong with your microphone, Senator Bob Brown, we will have it checked out at the end.
