I draw the Senate’s attention to orders for production of documents Nos 24, 25 and 27, orders to the Minister for the Environment and Heritage about the Tasmanian pulp mill and to the Minister representing the Prime Minister and to the Minister for the Environment and Heritage about environment groups. I ask that these orders be responded to or an explanation given by the ministers as to why they have not been responded to.

My office was not made aware of this request or, if it was, it was not passed on to me that it would be raised today. I will look into it and see where those requests are.
