My question is to the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and the Arts. Minister, I refer to the Victorian government’s proposal to pipe up to 110 billion litres of water annually from the Goulburn River in the Murray-Darling Basin to Melbourne. Will the minister use his powers to reject this proposal, which will have disastrous impacts on the environment and on agriculture?
