Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:04): I was so carried away with saying happy birthday to Marie Coleman that I forgot to give the statement by leave concerning ministerial arrangements! I seek leave to make a statement concerning the ministerial arrangements. Leave granted. Senator WONG: I inform the Senate that Senator Farrell, the Minister for Trade and Tourism, will be absent from question time today and tomorrow on account of ministerial business overseas. In his absence, ministers will represent portfolios in accordance with the letter that has been circulated to the President, party leaders and Independent senators.
