My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Agriculture and Water Resources, Senator Nash. Yesterday, the New South Wales government released the interim investigation report following allegations of water theft and corruption aired on ABC's Four Corners.Can the minister confirm that the report has found that the public's confidence in administration of water management in New South Wales has been undermined by ineffectual compliance and enforcement programs, allegations of noncompliance remaining unresolved and public servants being investigated by the New South Wales corruption watchdog, all of this under the minister's watch?
