QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator McKENZIE (Victoria—Leader of the Nationals in the Senate) (14:37): That's a very disappointing answer. The fire season has abruptly stopped in many places but aviation fuels are a key part of responding to floods, such as the impact of Cyclone Narelle. Is there sufficient aviation fuel in the system to manage Australia's response to emergencies like Cyclone Narelle without stopping supply to agriculture or to transport aviation?
