My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Resources, Senator Farrell. Australia is home to some of the world's largest deposits of critical minerals and rare earths, which are essential for clean energy technologies and advanced manufacturing—who provide Australian jobs, I might add. How is the Albanese Labor government working with the industry and international partners to build Australia's sovereign critical minerals capabilities and secure our place in the global supply chain?
