Senator CHRIS EVANS (Western Australia—Minister for Tertiary Education, Skills, Science and Research and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:15): I am informed by Senator McLucas that the Prime Minister was in St George with Barnaby Joyce about a week and a half ago. Senator Brandis interjecting— Senator CHRIS EVANS: That's not correct? Is that right? I will correct the record if that is not correct, but I am advised by Senator McLucas and I seem to remember seeing a photo in the paper— Senator Abetz: Yes, Senator Joyce avoided her! Senator CHRIS EVANS: Senator Abetz, you are confirming, are you, that she was there? The PRESIDENT: Comments to the chair, please. Senator CHRIS EVANS: All I can say is that it is clearly a stupid question. I am advised that the Prime Minister was in the company of Senator Barnaby Joyce, the Nationals leader, within the last couple of weeks discussing the flood situation at a meeting in St George. I certainly remember seeing some coverage of that. If I am wrong, I will correct the record. But it seems to me, Senator Brandis, that your question is misplaced and perhaps you ought to take the opportunity to ask Senator Joyce whether or not that is correct. And if you have misled the Senate in your question, obviously you will be correcting the record as well.
