My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. I refer to reporting by Sky News reporter Cam Reddin that government ministers have started cancelling travel to reduce fuel consumption, that members of government are considering not bringing staff to Canberra for budget week and that ministers are considering catching the bus to Canberra, because they are concerned about fuel. If ministers don't have confidence in Australia's fuel supply, which the Prime Minister and energy minister have said is at higher levels than before the conflict, how can Australians have confidence that we actually have enough fuel?
