by leave—I move:

That Senator Carr be granted leave of absence this week as he is travelling on parliamentary business.

Question agreed to.

Senator Sherry will take questions on behalf of Senator Carr on Senator Carr's portfolio, Innovation, Industry, Science and Research. Senator Wong will represent the Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, and Senator Ludwig will represent the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship. I think party leaders have already been advised.
