Senator RONALDSON (Victoria—Minister for Veterans' Affairs, Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for the Centenary of ANZAC and Special Minister of State) (14:00): No, it is not actually. Can I thank the senator for the question. I am not entirely sure whether that was a full saving or a reduction. But if you are telling me it was a reduction, then I am prepared to accept that. But if I can please just turn, if I may, to the situation in Tasmania and what the government is doing in relation to Tasmania itself. You have asked me a question about what needs to be done in Tasmania. As the honourable senator would appreciate, the Tasmanian economy, as a result of 16 years of Labor and then a Labor-Greens alliance, has the highest unemployment in the country and the lowest retention rates in the country. And that is why we have put together the Tasmanian Major Projects Approval— Senator Moore: I rise on a point of order. It is on direct relevance. The question specifically relates to the Entrepreneurs' Infrastructure Programme and firms that have been excluded from that program in Tasmania. If we could draw the minister's attention to that question. Senator Kim Carr: He needs a life raft! The PRESIDENT: Order, Senator Carr! Thank you, Senator Moore. I noted that Senator Ronaldson was directly relevant at the commencement of his question. And he still has nearly under half his time remaining to answer. Senator Ronaldson, I will draw your attention back to the question. Senator RONALDSON: Thank you very much, Mr President. Either the honourable senator is interested in what is going to be done for Tasmania or is not. So if she just wants to play politics, that is fine.

Opposition senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Pause the clock. Senator Wong on a point of order? Order, senators on my left! Your leader is on her feet seeking the call. Senator Wong: I rise on a point of order. The question was about the Enterprise Connect program and the Entrepreneurs' Infrastructure Programme. The minister has not even gone close to those two programs. I would ask him to take question time a little more seriously—it is a serious question—and return to the question. The PRESIDENT: Minister, you have 23 seconds left answer the question. I draw your attention to the question. Senator RONALDSON: Thank you. Of course, it would help if the Opposition Leader did not constantly interject during question time for a whole range of questions. At any event, can I just please make it absolutely clear that this government is committed to promoting investment and jobs in Tasmania. Senator, that is the very reason that we put in place— (Time expired)
