My question is to the Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development, the Deputy Prime Minister. Climate change poses massive risks to Australia's infrastructure, including from rising sea levels, floods that are more intense and bushfires like we've already seen this year. Deputy Prime Minister, will you join me in congratulating the courageous school students going on strike on 15 March right around the country, calling for urgent climate action and the protection of Australia's infrastructure? Will you commend these young people, and the 15,000 who went on strike last November, for taking time off school to show us what real leadership looks like?
