QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator HANSON-YOUNG (South Australia—Manager of Australian Greens Business in the Senate) (14:33): The minister didn't even go anywhere near my question. I'll ask you again: there are dozens of data centres already in the pipeline awaiting approval or in development in Australia. Will the Albanese government commit to making your AI and data centre laws retrospective to projects already approved or underway, or will Labor allow corporations to rush through projects before there are any guardrails in place?
