No, I will not be doing that, because it is irrelevant to the bill. What I can tell you as the minister with the carriage of this bill is that the people with whom I have had contact—the National Native Title Council and individual native title representative groups—are urging the Senate not to delay or filibuster this debate but to get the bill passed and they are doing so unanimously—the Queensland government and other stakeholders. As the minister responsible for the carriage of the bill, I can assure you I have had no communication with Adani whatsoever.
