Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. On Monday the government watered down threatened species protection in the House of Representatives. Yesterday the government approved the world's biggest coal port and yet another LNG plant in the reef and tried to abolish the Clean Energy Finance Corporation. Today the government moved to reduce protection for the Murray-Darling, and on Friday the Prime Minister is hoping to palm off all national environmental approval responsibilities to the states. When will Minister Hunt change his door plaque to 'Minister Against the Environment'?
