Senator Hanson-Young made reference to an alleged sense of imbalance. I ask the minister to clarify for the chamber. There will be only modest economic and commercial benefits to Australia. Can the minister elaborate on why the trade agreement will assist Pacific island countries more than Australian businesses?
