I move:

That the Senate take note of the minister's failure to provide either answers or explanation.

Senator Lundy can comment as much as she likes about whether comments have been passed on to representative ministers, but it would seem to me that, with this number of answers outstanding well over 30 days past the due date for response, it is simply indicative of the fact that answering ques­tions on time is not being taken as a serious issue by the government.

Question agreed to.
