Senator PAYNE (New South Wales—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Minister for Women) (14:25): Just to clarify, Senator McAllister, I believe you asked me as Minister for Women, but I do also represent the Attorney-General in this place. As the senator has indicated, this government commissioned the Respect@Work report into sexual harassment in Australian workplaces, which, as the senator has indicated, was tabled by the government last year. Sexual harassment in Australian workplaces, which, of course, has been, in its most appalling representation, the subject of significant discussion in this place in the last weeks, is an issue that can affect any workplace. So the report by the Sex Discrimination Commissioner and her team is a very important report, which needs, we believe, a unified national response from all Australian governments as well as from employers and industry. As part of the last budget, 2020-21, including in the 2020 Women's economic security statement, the government announced $2.1 million over three years to provide practical support to employers and employees to prevent and address sexual harassment in Australian workplaces. That funding will contribute towards the implementation of key recommendations from the AHRC's landmark report, and that includes the council itself, which will be led by Sex Discrimination Commissioner Kate Jenkins. It will bring together existing leaders from bodies with a role in preventing and responding to workplace sexual harassment. The council will work to promote safer workplaces and provide high-level advice to the government. The PRESIDENT: Order, Senator Payne. Senator McAllister, on a point of order? Senator McAllister: I have been listening to the answer, but my point of order goes to relevance. I asked specifically about the failure to implement any of the substantive legislative recommendations. I'd like the minister to address that part of the question, which was a narrow question. The PRESIDENT: I've allowed you to remind the minister of the question. I think it is in order and being directly relevant for the minister to be discussing other measures the government has taken, and that is an opportunity that can be debated after question time as to the Senate's consideration of those answers. Senator PAYNE: I was referring to the recommendation in relation to the council, which will be led by the Sex Discrimination Commissioner. That funding through the budget will also support the implementation of nine other key recommendations from the report, including the development of the online information platform— (Time expired) The PRESIDENT: Senator McAllister, a supplementary question?
