I support Senator McGrath on this motion, because if you know North Queensland, especially the area around Cairns and as far down south as Townsville, you'll find crocs. People are in danger of having their lives taken. It is quite evident that it does happen on the shore, where horses and dogs have been taken and even children have lost their lives. People have lost their lives because of crocs—and the crocs are moving south. I cannot believe that Senator Chisholm, who is speaking on behalf of the Labor Party and who is supposed to be a senator for Queensland, has no idea of what is happening in North Queensland with regard to this. It would be quite interesting to see if you are going to support this motion.
Opposition senators: We are!
Fantastic! I'm pleased to hear that, because, by the sounds of it, I thought you were pushing it across to state Labor.
