Thanks, Senator Tyrrell. There are a couple of things that your question involved—first of all, the nature-positive laws. Of course, our government did seek to pass laws that would actually deliver on the requests of many in the business community and those concerned about the environment.

But the guy who's yelling at me at the moment was instrumental in stopping those laws being passed. He likes to yell. So do the rest of the Greens. They like to yell, but they don't actually like to get anything done.

Honourable senators interjecting—

They're still yelling—yell, yell, yell—never actually doing anything.
