Penny Wong (SA, Australian Labor Party, Leader of the Opposition in the Senate) Share this | Hansard source

Mr President, I rise on a point of order that goes to relevance. Mr President, you could ask the Leader of the Government to reflect on accusations of xenophobia; they are not worthy of this debate. I asked a very straightforward question that goes to whether employers will be required to test whether suitable Australian workers are available before they employ Chinese workers on these projects. That is the question that the minister ought to be able to answer.
