We are accused of being Johnny-come-latelys on the issue. Senator Sterle, by a foolish interjection, is confirming that on behalf of the Labor Party. The other day I took the opportunity of asking the Parliamentary Library to have a bit of a look at the number of questions that were asked on global warming and climate change from 1998 to the current date. The information is very instructive. In the year that we set up the Greenhouse Office, 1998, how many questions do you think the Labor Party asked?
