Mr Temporary Chairman, I rise on a point of order on relevance. We are debating an amendment to take the logging and burning of native forests out of the renewable energy target. Senator Macdonald is straying into an analysis of election results, which I do not see as having any relevance to a renewable energy target and a government decision to log native forest—apart from being totally wrong, of course.
