My question is to Senator Brandis, the minister representing the foreign affairs minister. After claiming the discovery of Deputy Prime Minister Joyce's New Zealand citizenship was a conspiracy, the Minister for Foreign Affairs said yesterday that she would find it, 'very difficult to build trust with a future New Zealand Labor government'. Given the minister has also said she does not accept the statements of conservative New Zealand minister Peter Dunne, can she confirm she would find it difficult to build a relationship with a New Zealand government of either political persuasion?
