Penny Wong (SA, Australian Labor Party, Minister for Finance and Deregulation) Share this | Hansard source

Yes, I am the former climate change minister. I am now the Minister for Finance and Deregulation. Senator Joyce made a comment about the investment in the NBN. I do not know if he has looked at the policy of his friend Mr Turnbull, but Mr Turnbull is in fact promising to borrow almost as much for his plan—a plan for a network which would fall a long way short of providing an appropriate service, particularly to regional Australia.

From his interjections, though, I am confused at the moment as to where the senator's allegiances lie. Is he here representing Queensland or New South Wales?
