SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:24):</by>  I think as a government we have certainly shown that we are keen to have impact where that is possible, and some of those things are also, of course, outside of direct government control. We very much have an open-door policy in terms of discussions about ideas or initiatives that might assist in this. I have talked before about the capacity for some of our big projects, such as the Hydrogen Jobs Plan, to have positive impacts across the sectors and across the economy.</text>
