Senator PAYNE (New South Wales—Minister for Defence) (14:43): I have sought advice from the Minister for Foreign Affairs in relation to this issue. Senator Whish-Wilson is indeed correct when he refers to the United Nations' concerns that have been raised in relation to the situation in Yemen as a very significant humanitarian crisis. Australia has made contributions to support in Yemen since the beginning of this year. Minister Bishop announced the most recent contribution of $10 million on 16 September. That assistance has helped to deliver food, health care, water and sanitation to the many people who are in need of urgent assistance. We are also contributing to the humanitarian response in Yemen through our funding of the UN Central Emergency Response Fund. We've provided $33 million to UN CERF, as it is known, over the past three years, which has helped UN CERF provide $20 million in 2016 and $60 million in 2015 to Yemen. We have urged all those engaged in the conflict— The PRESIDENT: Order, Senator Payne. Senator Whish-Wilson is on his feet. Senator Whish-Wilson, do you have a point of order? I think Senator Payne may have concluded her answer, or the time has expired. Senator Whish-Wilson: I was on my feet with seven seconds to go. The PRESIDENT: There were five seconds to go, Senator Whish-Wilson. Senator Whish-Wilson: That's exactly why I'm taking a point of order. I asked whether the minister would actually condemn the Saudi blockade. It was a very clear question. The PRESIDENT: Senator Whish-Wilson, when questions have prefaces, ministers are allowed to address those. I call you now for your second supplementary question.
