Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:41): I'm very pleased that Senator Duniam does think it's a good thing that trade unions speak up for their members. Maybe he should have a chat to Senator Cash! What I would say is that the premise of the question is incorrect. The advice that I have from the minister is as I've outlined. Senator Duniam interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Duniam, you've asked your question. Senator WONG: Everything thereafter is probably more akin to a speech by Senator Duniam than a question of a minister. I would say that Australia, obviously, has had a very proud history in relation to Antarctica. We are a global leader in Antarctic science. Senator Carol Brown interjecting— Senator Duniam interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Wong, please resume your seat. Senator Brown and Senator Duniam, order! Senator WONG: Australia remains a global leader on Antarctic science, operations, environmental protection and the Antarctic Treaty System. We continue to have a strong presence in the Australian Antarctic Territory and fulfil our obligations under the treaty, and we recognise the importance of this work.
