I would like to clarify that that is precisely why the Greens did not vote for the Murray-Darling Basin Plan. We knew you would squib it. We knew you would screw South Australia eventually. Earlier this week, Senator Xenophon indicated that his support for government bills, including the backpacker tax and the ABCC legislation, would be dependent on the delivery of this extra 450 gigalitres. One of those bills has already passed. How much water, if any, will you promise?
