I would like to ask the minister a number of questions in relation to what she said about the independent audited reports under the EPBC Act. Could the minister elaborate on the extent of that audit and who would carry out such an audit? Given the criticisms by the Victorian Auditor-General as to the robustness or otherwise of the water savings, I would be grateful if the minister could also walk the Senate through the processes involved in determining whether or not the water savings in this project are real.
