My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. The Easter long weekend begins in four days. It is the busiest road travel period of the year, with many Australians wanting to drive hundreds and hundreds of kilometres but worried that, if they do, the bowsers will be dry along the way. Regional communities, tourism operators and travelling families all depend on fuel being available. Treasurer Jim Chalmers is telling Australians to go ahead with their Easter holiday plans, even as more than 870 service stations have run dry or are missing at least one type of fuel. Will the Prime Minister guarantee that he will get fuel to those empty pumps before Good Friday?
