Mr Presi-dent, I ask a further supplementary question. It seems to me that Senator Conroy is either part of the stuff-up or part of the cover-up in this matter. Specifically, has the Maritime Emergency Response Commander or the maritime pollution controller exercised their powers of intervention in light of the slow response and underestimation of the size of the spill by the Queensland government?
