Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. That leads to my next question as to whether the minister can give an assurance about which she is talking. Can she assure the Senate that the Traveston Crossing dam has not been mentioned or discussed in any cabinet meeting? I am not asking for any advice on what the discussion was. I simply ask whether she can assure us that it has not been mentioned. And will the minister give an assurance that he will refuse to discuss the matter of the Traveston Crossing dam with the Prime Minister, Mr Rudd, or any of Mr Rudd’s staff?
