My question is to the Minister for Energy and Emissions Reduction. At the meeting to which the minister has previously referred, did he ask for the grasslands listing affecting Jam Land to be varied without scientific advice and then kept secret? Was that the minister's idea or the Treasurer's idea?

I make absolutely no apology for seeking and receiving briefings on policies that affect the farmers in my electorate. I am a proud farmer in my electorate. I will always seek and receive briefings on policies that impact them.
