I will be able to provide some information on that, but before I do so I would like to respond to the very provocative comments by Senator Carr on a bill on which I have been advised there is a general consensus. There is a view that the Victorian government is pretty supportive of this, so Senator Carr decided to get up and launch—I would have to say, not without precedent in Senator Carr’s role—a pretty nasty attack on my colleague Senator Ian Campbell. I would make two points. The first is that I think Senator Campbell is an excellent minister for the environment and a great activist minister.
