Senator PRATT (Western Australia) (15:00): My question this afternoon is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Cormann. Yesterday Senator Fierravanti-Wells published her letter offering her resignation as Minister for International Development and the Pacific to the Prime Minister. This morning Senator Fierravanti-Wells said that she had not spoken to the Prime Minister and was not sure whether her resignation had been accepted. When did the Prime Minister accept Senator Fierravanti-Wells's resignation? And how was acceptance finally communicated to Senator Fierravanti-Wells?
