I notice the remarks made by the Premier of New South Wales. I notice the remarks made by the Premier of Victoria. I notice the variable remarks made by the Premier of Queensland—he is gradually becoming more supportive, and I welcome that, because I have always found him a man you can do business with if you get onto the right subject. I look forward to Thursday’s meeting in Canberra as being a great day for water security in this country.
