You could only describe as hypocritical someone who supports the decision of Mr Hulls to stop a wind farm development in Ballan, less than 200 kilometres north of Bald Hills, but then criticises me for stopping one when the impacts on wedge-tailed eagles are almost identical. Mr Hulls looked at the impacts on wedge-tailed eagles of a wind farm in Ballan and decided to stop it; he looked at the same report in relation to Bald Hills and said it should go ahead. He is very inconsistent. I would be interested to know whether Senator Wortley supported this decision, by one who only a few months ago approved the biggest greenhouse gas emitting facility in the Southern Hemisphere—445 million tonnes of carbon per year. Victorian Labor are people who profess to care about the climate and climate change, but totally ignore—(Time expired)
