I was trying to explain what was occurring in relation to the project in question. We have reviewed projects in the infrastructure program to better align investment with market capacity, consulting with the states and the territories through this process. This is what responsible governments do. I will be very clear: I understand that the $823 million for the Rockhampton Ring Road remains in the budget. It remains in the budget, but unlike the former government we're actually being upfront about project delivery time lines. That's the responsible thing to do.

Senator McKenzie, you can yell all you like, but an announcement is not delivery. (Time expired)
