My question is to the Minister for Emergency Management, Senator Watt. Last year, communities across Australia were devastated by floods, with some towns hit multiple times across a matter of months. In my home state of New South Wales the Central West region experienced unprecedented flooding. In the town of Eugowra, the scale of the flooding was described as an 'inland tsunami'. Minister, what is the Albanese government doing to support towns across the Central West to recover and build back stronger?
