My question is to the Acting Prime Minister. Yesterday, when speaking about the Acting Prime Minister's plan to dismantle the Murray-Darling Basin Plan, Senator Xenophon said, 'Barnaby was free-raging the other day. It does not reflect whole-of-government policy.' Is the Acting Prime Minister aware who in the government communicated this message to Senator Xenophon and was the senator correct? Was it fair to describe the Acting Prime Minister as free-ranging?
