Joel Fitzgibbon (Hunter, Australian Labor Party, Shadow Minister for Agriculture) Share this | Hansard source

At the invitation of the Leader of the House, my question is to the Minister for Agriculture. I refer him to the importance of the diesel fuel rebate to primary producers and, indeed, to rural communities more generally. Can he confirm that Gina Rinehart now has more influence over coalition policy that does the National Party, and isn't it the rural community and primary producers who are suffering from this lack of influence on the part of the National Party?
