I draw the chamber’s attention to the fact that two questions I asked of the Minister for Climate Change and Water, Nos 2038 and. 2039 on notice, on 20 July remain unanswered. I ask for an explanation and, in the absence of an explanation, I give notice that tomorrow after question time I will move a suitable and appropriate motion.

Senator Brown, I do not know if you spoke to my office but I was not aware you were raising this at this point. I am very happy to go back and get some information on the issues you raise but I have not had any notice. It is usually the courtesy to tell ministers that you will do so, Senator Brown. I understand that in the current circumstances this is how you might want to deal with things but I will endeavour to get some advice and advise the chamber.
