I thank Senator Hanson for that question, and I respond in the same way I've responded as she's raised this a number of times over the years where she's sought to demonise transgender people across this country: that is a matter that the sports organisations deal with. They deal with it appropriately, as the experts in that area. The issues you raise in my area of women's policy have not been raised with me as Minister for Women by any of the range of stakeholders I deal with on a day-to-day basis on addressing women's policy and driving gender equality. That's the position this government takes, it's the position we've taken when you've asked me before, and it'll be the position that we take in the future.
