Senator HANSON-YOUNG (South Australia) (16:23): I seek leave to make a short statement. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator HANSON-YOUNG: This motion is as simple as it can possibly be. The Trans-Pacific Partnership is a bad deal for Australia, and we know that President-Elect Trump does not want to pursue it. We should get out now. We should stop wasting government resources, agency resources. I understand that the Labor Party is uncomfortable about having a position on this. Senator McGrath: You are debating it. You are not supposed to be debating it. Senator HANSON-YOUNG: Well, there are times in this place when you have to make a decision. Today would have been an opportunity to send a clear message that Australia and this Senate does not support continuing with the TPP. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: The question is that the motion put by Senator Hanson-Young be agreed to.
