In Senator Hanson-Young's reference to those international engagements that occurred at Glasgow, she obviously overlooks the fact that the Prime Minister, in those international engagements and with Australian ministers in our government, has signed new technology low-emissions partnerships with Singapore, Japan, Germany, the UK, Korea, Indonesia and Vietnam, demonstrating indeed just how closely the Prime Minister and our government are working with international partners. That's completely contrary to the types of claims that the Greens want to make. These are close international partnerships on technology cooperation that are a vote of confidence in terms of the investment we are making in our technology; the work and commitment that we have to emissions reduction; and Australia's track record on achievement, which our government is proud of and continues to pursue and deliver.
