I thank the honourable member for his question. The honourable member's electorate of Bennelong contains some of Australia's leading technology businesses and some of its leading research institutions, both private and public sector. The CSIRO's laboratories are in the Macquarie Park district in his electorate. While the member's electorate does not contain an iron ore mine or a coalmine, it is poised to benefit immensely from the China-Australia Free Trade Agreement, the best free trade agreement ever entered into or ever negotiated by China with any comparable developed country.
