Angus Taylor (Hume, Liberal Party, Minister for Energy and Emissions Reduction) Share this | Hansard source

After being in opposition for seven years, you'd think the member for Hindmarsh would know how FOIs work. Freedom-of-information requests are being, as they always are, processed in accordance with the act. I tabled my statement from 25 October in the House and I stand by that statement.

The poor understanding of FOI from the member for Hindmarsh isn't his only mistake. We know he was the architect of Labor's energy and climate policies in 2013, in 2016 and in 2019. He was the architect of all of those election-losing policies. He is an election-losing machine. Now the self-proclaimed master tactician who couldn't even hold the Labor Party presidency is at it again. The member for Hindmarsh is Labor's special weapon. He is an election-losing machine.
