Thank you, Senator Birmingham and Senator Wong. I'll seek the advice of the Clerk.

Honourable senators interjecting—

Order! Order across the chamber! Senator Wong has raised an order by previous president Hogg, and Senator Birmingham has made comments. I am advised that the link is tenuous, and I'm going to invite Senator Gallagher to answer the question to the extent that she thinks is necessary. I will also take the matter on notice and, if necessary, come back to the chamber with a further statement. Thank you. Minister Gallagher.
