My question is to the Minister for Infrastructure. The Senate inquiry into Darwin's Middle Arm project heard from the Northern Territory's chief minister that a petrochemical factory could be established there. And the gas company Tamboran has told the ASX that they have exclusive rights to build a gas export terminal at Middle Arm, with gas fracked out of the Beetaloo basin. In light of this, will your government now withdraw its $1½ billion fossil fuel subsidy for the Middle Arm project? Or is fracking the NT part of the Albanese government's Future Made in Australia?
