McKENZIE (—) (): It's actually a question to you, Minister, because the Greens have signed up to the safeguard mechanism on the understanding that this fund will not back the coal, gas or resource industry when in fact, if it's building the trains, if it's building the railway lines and if it's building the ships that are carrying our gas, that are carrying our coal and that are carrying our resources, it is absolutely underpinning and supporting our fabulous resource industries. Is this a case of the Labor Party absolutely duping Adam Bandt? Has Albo actually got it over Adam—pulled a swifty? Minister, has the Prime Minister successfully pulled a swifty against the Greens on this measure?
