I inform the Senate that Senator Conroy will be absent from question time today and tomorrow due to illness. The allocation of Senator Conroy's question time responsibilities for today and tomorrow is as follows. Senator Lundy will represent him in his responsibilities as Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy—it was agreed that she had far more technical knowledge than I! Senator Kim Carr will represent the Minister for Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities, and Senator Ludwig will represent the Minister for Regional Australia, Regional Development and Local Government.
