Senator MILNE (Tasmania—Leader of the Australian Greens) (14:22): Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. That is a fascinating response to a simple question: can he explain why the minister wanted to hand over Commonwealth powers to the states when he knew that New South Wales was not complying? And now, overnight, he has become concerned about the impacts of coal seam gas on communities and the environment after he himself approved three huge coal seam gas mines and ports within six months of becoming environment minister. Does the minister's concern extend beyond the New South Wales electorates in Western Sydney?
