My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Resources, Senator Farrell. Last week's Gas statement of opportunities highlighted an imminent risk of gas shortfalls. Labor today voted against bringing its own legislation to the Senate despite having bipartisan support for it from the coalition. You've thrown the offshore gas industry into uncertainty and caused further delay by blocking your own legislation, despite claiming that this bill was urgent and desperately needed. What deal have you done with the Greens for their votes?
