I will take that interjection. The member offered me a bottle of Grange if I didn't mention a certain regulator tonight—one which has been moved from one point to another. I'm going to resist the temptation and take him up on that offer. He should walk out in embarrassment. He claims to be an advocate for the forestry sector. Given what I just said about this government's paltry performance over five years with another plan, he should hang his head and walk out in shame!

Given that the drought remains protracted and severe in both Queensland and New South Wales, what message does the minister have for farm families coming off farm household support in the near future?
