Senator LUDWIG (Queensland—Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry and Minister Assisting on Queensland Floods Recovery) (14:40): I thank Senator Furner for his second supplementary question. Premier Newman is just the curtain-raiser for the cuts that would come from an Abbott government. Those opposite know that, that is why they are interjecting so poorly today. With relentless negativity, his cuts across recreational fishing would be reflected from a government led by him. Opposition senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! If you wish to debate the issue, the time to debate it is after question time—not now. Senator LUDWIG: Before the Queensland election, the LNP told recreational fishers that, if elected, 'an LNP government will closely work with stakeholders to enhance the experience of recreational fishers in Queensland'. We know how that ended. At the start of this month, Senator Colbeck said in a media release: 'The coalition looks forward to working cooperatively with the recreational fishing sector to ensure that enjoyment continues.' It sounds familiar, Mr President, does it not? The LNP provide just hollow words and spin before taking an axe to the recreational fishing sector. (Time expired) Senator Scullion interjecting— Senator Ian Macdonald: People have woken up to you, I have to say. Senator Ludwig: Have you written to Campbell Newman? Senator Scullion interjecting— Senator Colbeck interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! I remind you Senator Scullion, and Senator Colbeck, that one of your colleagues is waiting to be called for the next question.
