Thank you, Mr President, for your protection. We've put $5 billion for drought resilience back into the community and we're tapping into emergent industries such as the hydrogen industry; we've put $1.3 billion on the table for that. I could go on and on. We're putting record investment into the regions. But, I tell you what, I would love to hear someone over on the other side of this chamber talk about regional Australia. Albo didn't even mention it in his National Press Club speech last week. (Time expired)
