Senator CONROY (Victoria—Leader of the Government in the Senate, Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy and Minister Assisting the Prime Minister on Digital Productivity) (14:01): Twenty-four hours and that was the best you can come up with? Twenty-four hours to come up with a policy, talk about the National Broadband Network, talk even about media policy—at least for the last few days you have been on the media policy; you have actually been on policy. But, Mr President, those opposite are dredging the bottom of the barrel. We have already seen this morning a press conference—through you, Mr President, I draw your attention, Senator Brandis, to the press conference—that the foreign affairs minister held in New York or, I think, Washington. He is on his way to New York now. In Washington he came on the ABC and he said the report was completely untrue. Opposition senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Conroy, just resume your seat. Order! Senator Conroy, continue. Senator CONROY: I can draw you to the transcripts or we could possibly let you see it on iView—that is able to be seen on computers, Senator Heffernan; it is called IPTV. Senator Carr could not have been more categorical when he said, 'The journalists never even attempted to contact my office.' He had spoken to his office and they had never even attempted to contact the office, to paraphrase what Senator Carr said, but reasonably accurately. And we have seen this morning Mr Butler tweet that it is also untrue. Those opposite have got no substance. They are policy free and they are stooping to the bottom of the barrel because they have no care for the vision for this country. They do not care about childcare workers. They do not care about textile workers. They do not care about transport workers. They have opposed every single reform in these areas to improve the life of working people in this country. They have absolutely demonstrated with that question— (Time expired)
