My question is to the Prime Minister. In Adelaide, the Prime Minister said the build of our new future fleet, including the offshore patrol vessels, would be centred on South Australia. In Melbourne, the Prime Minister said that the construction of the vessels would most likely start in South Australia but then could move to Victoria. Is the Prime Minister aware that the current patrol boats were built in Western Australia? What is the Prime Minister's position on where Australia's new offshore patrol vessels should be built?

Mr Pyne interjecting
