My apologies, Madam Speaker. My question is to the Prime Minister. The Galilee Basin has been on hold for 10 years. For its coal to be mined, unit haulage costs require over 120 million tonnes to be carried each year on a single rail line. Would not government guaranteed development bonds provide confidence, security and multiuser status? If such were only conditional upon miners investing at high hurt levels, surely mining would happen. Would the PM's dialogue with Queensland have already given the jobs to 457s and the rail line to GVK to China first to make mining as darned near, reportedly, as Santa Claus and the abominable snowman?
