Pat Conroy (Charlton, Australian Labor Party) Share this | Hansard source

She had run out of Labor projects to announce—projects that we had not only announced but funded. But that goes to this whole issue. The four previous Labor speakers did an excellent job outlining the litany of failures around infrastructure planning by the current government. I would like to explore why this is so and why they have failed. While it would be improper to attribute blame to one individual, I think that there is one individual at the heart of this, and that is the Assistant Minister for Infrastructure and Regional Development, the member for Mayo, who is a great adornment to the Liberal Party.
