My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Cormann. I refer to the crisis regarding contamination by PFOS chemicals that's been documented in the media over the last week. In my home state of Victoria alone, it's been reported that there are possibly 16 sites where elevated levels of toxic firefighting contamination have been found. Given that, what is the government's plan to undertake a thorough clean-up of this pollution and provide compensation for those who have lost income and value on their property because of the contamination?
