My question is to the Minister for Innovation, Industry, Science and Research, Senator Carr. Can the minister please inform the Senate as to the Gorgon liquefied natural gas project which is to be developed off Western Australia? Specifically, what benefits is the project expected to bring, with particular reference to employment, export earnings and government revenue? More specifically, what opportunities is the project expected to create for Australian industry? What action has the joint venture taken to maximise these opportunities?
