I thank Senator Cox for her question. As I spoke about in an earlier answer, the cabinet has been to the Northern Territory only last week. I guess, one of the developments in the Northern Territory is that there will be a supply of gas coming from the Northern Territory to assist particularly the East Coast of Australia with guaranteed and reliable gas supply. This government doesn't apologise for continuing to support the gas industry to ensure that the lights stay on so that even basket weavers like yourself, Senator Cox, can have lights at night-time.
