Senator FURNER (Queensland) (14:59): Mr President, I ask a final supplementary question— Opposition senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! Ignore the interjections, Senator Furner. Senator FURNER: I will ignore those interjections. The PRESIDENT: They are disorderly. You need to address your question to the chair. Senator FURNER: Can the minister inform the Senate on the reports that the Queensland government will abolish funding to the Queensland Reconstruction Authority and how this will put at risk the continued reconstruction efforts and future preparedness?
