My question is to the Minister for Resources, Energy and Northern Australia. The ports, roads, rail and airports were built by the people as joint-user service facilities to create development. Is the government facilitating the Darwin Port sale thereby (1) profoundly inhibiting growth on half of Australia's coastline and (2) since the China FTA and TPP allow discretionary port charges and foreign job outsourcing, creating a foreign corporate, unrestrained, monopolistic money machine?
