QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE
Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (15:18): President, through you, it used to be that the Nationals were regarded as the farmers party, but it does appear that they are not interested in the views of farmers. If Senator Cadell is referring to the release of the consultation paper on Tuesday, I would make this point.
The National Farmers' Federation has welcomed the Australian government's release— Senator McKenzie interjecting— Senator WONG: I know this is very upsetting for you, Senator McKenzie, because you don't speak for them anymore. It's upsetting, isn't it? The National Farmers' Federation has welcomed the Australian government's release of consultation papers on establishing the Australian fuel security reserve and proposed measures to strengthen Australia's fuel resilience, including increasing the minimum stockholding obligation—wait for it, Senator McKenzie—and low-carbon liquid fuels.
It's so upsetting, isn't it, when your scare campaign— (Time expired) The PRESIDENT: Senator McKenzie, I am quite frankly over calling your name. Senator Cadell, second supplementary?
