QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator McKENZIE (Victoria—Leader of the Nationals in the Senate) (14:41): I'll try again. Why has the Minister for Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government not reported evidence from the states, of corruption and bullying as part of federally funded projects in Victoria by CFMEU officials, to the Department of Employment and Workplace Relations and/or to the Fair Work Ombudsman?

The PRESIDENT: I'm going to remind the Senate; I am going to try to be pre-emptive. You were heard in silence. When I call the minister, I expect the minister to be heard in silence.

Minister McCarthy.
