My question is to the Minister for Energy and Emissions Reduction. I refer to the minister's previous answers and his statement that he has disclosed interests in accordance with the rules. Can the minister confirm that he has never disclosed his interest in an entity called JRAT to the parliament?

Thank you, Mr Speaker. I seek leave to table a media report in which the minister confirms that he has not disclosed that and should have.

The member for Hindmarsh will resume his seat. I've made it very clear that I'm not even going to ask the Leader of the House for leave on publications that are widely available.
