I'll fill up the minute left, and I'll have to deliver this in my adjournment speech tonight. I want to alert the chamber that there has been a major scientific discovery in South Australia in relation to the algal bloom. It suggested, subject to peer review, that there is another species of the algae which is producing brevetoxins, which, therefore, supports many of the health concerns being experienced by South Australians. Honourable senators should be mindful that my state is doing it tough in a form of natural disaster which hasn't been experienced before. I look forward to speaking more on the topic when we agree the findings in the Senate hearing.
