Senator CONROY (Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy and Minister Assisting the Prime Minister on Digital Productivity) (1:55 PM) —Senator Joyce has raised a whole range of issues across the whole gamut of the NBN, so let me be clear: very few of them have any relevance to the committee stage of this bill. If Senator Joyce would like to ask about, seek information on or debate the bill, I will happily do this. What Senator Joyce is seeking to do is bring a whole series of totally spurious issues into the chamber today. They are valid issues to have a debate about, Senator Joyce and Senator Parry—they are very valid issues—but we are debating some amendments before the chair, and these are clearly not relevant. If Senator Joyce wants to debate issues of substance on the bill, I welcome that, but I am not going to be drawn into a lengthy debate about what Senator Joyce wants to talk about even if it has nothing to do with the bill.
