WATER SECURITY, AUSTRALIA

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:38): My question is to the Minister for Water Security. Can the minister advise which federal party she believes has the best policy for the options of Australia's water security? Yesterday, the minister told a press conference that, while the Premier had criticised the federal government for its water policies, she had major concerns about the silence from the federal opposition. The how-to-vote card for Ms Maywald's SA Nationals in the seat of Barker shows the Nationals' Deb Thiele listing the Liberal Party candidate second and the Labor Party candidate—wait for it—last, on the how-to-vote card.

The SPEAKER: Order!
