My question is to the Minister for Agriculture. I myself am a senator who lives in the regions, in an area where we are on zero per cent allocation, and who understands exactly how hard and how frustrating it is for our people. Can you explain to the chamber what the Liberals and Nationals in government are doing to take practical steps during this drought, including how we are making water available to farmers to support livestock and breeding herds, in order to improve recovery when the drought breaks?
