My question is to the Minister for Climate Change, Energy Efficiency and Water, Senator Wong. I refer the minister to Mr Rudd’s 2007 water election policy that claimed he would ‘accelerate investment in all water saving infrastructure’ and had re-engineering of Menindee Lakes at the top of the list. Why, three years after the release of the policy, has not even a sod of soil been turned on the re-engineering of Menindee Lakes?
