Senator LUDWIG (Queensland—Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry and Minister Assisting on Queensland Floods Recovery) (14:31): I thank Senator Furner. Unlike those opposite, he continues to work with Queensland to rebuild. In hundreds of communities across Queensland the reconstruction progress is taking place, from the Bruce Highway to local roads in Somerset, bridges in Petrie, marine infrastructure in Cardwell, the Knights club in Ipswich, the Warrego Highway and Cunninghams Gap, which is undergoing major work. We are getting on with the job. I can inform the Senate that the reconstruction work is continuing each and every day; it is continuing as we speak. I am happy to announce that the local boating pontoon at Balgal Beach, just outside of Townsville, has been completely replaced and was reopened this afternoon. The 11-metre pontoon damaged by Cyclone Yasi has been reconstructed, in the original position, next to the boat ramp. The facility will have real benefits for the safety of the fishing and boating enthusiasts. I wish— (Time expired)
