My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Resources, Water and Northern Australia, Senator Ruston. Minister, I recently travelled to the Beetaloo Basin in the Northern Territory. The region is certainly buzzing with activity. It is definitely an exciting time to be a Territorian. The Beetaloo presents a once-in-a-generation opportunity for job creation and economic growth. Can the minister update the Senate on the Morrison-McCormack government's plan to develop new untapped gas resources, like the Beetaloo Basin, which will fuel new manufacturing ventures across the Northern Territory and help our national economy emerge from COVID-19?
