I thank the minister for her answer, although it was a bit dismaying not to be able to hear it over Senator Carr's interjections, in front of the recipients. But I thank the minister and, again, I congratulate on behalf of all of us the recipients here today, and in particular Professor Jenny Graves, who I met this morning, for being the first individual female winner of the Prime Minister's Prize for Science. Can the minister please update the Senate on the Turnbull government's work to encourage women to pursue careers in science?
