by leave—I apologise to Senator Johnston for delaying his question. I need to make a statement about ministerial representation. I indicate that Senator Penny Wong is overseas, just for today, representing the government at the Major Economies Meeting in Korea. For today’s purposes, Senator John Faulkner will represent her on climate change, water, the environment, heritage and the arts, and Senator Conroy will represent her on employment and workplace relations, social inclusion, youth, employment participation and the status of women. All party leaders were advised of this late last week.
