As I foreshadowed in the second reading debate, I wish to move an amendment. As I spoke to it at some length in the second reading debate, however, I would, before moving it, put the question to the minister as I believe he was probably out of the room when I was giving my introductory remarks. So I will be a little bit more specific. Can you, Minister, enlighten the chamber as to the state of preparation within the Commonwealth government for an oil shock and the state of preparation for oil rationing? If the minister could give us some advice on those matters, it would be greatly appreciated.
