Senator FARRELL (South Australia—Minister for Trade and Tourism, Special Minister of State and Deputy Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:30): I thank Senator Sheldon for his brief first supplementary question. Last month I travelled to— Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Minister Farrell, please resume your seat. I've called order about three times. I remind senators that interjections across the chamber are particularly disorderly. The minister has the floor and has a right to be heard in silence. Minister Farrell. Senator FARRELL: Last month I travelled to Japan for the G7 trade and investment ministers meeting and to negotiate with the European Union to conclude a free trade agreement. Since I became trade minister— Senator Scarr: How'd that go? Senator FARRELL: Well, I'm about to tell you, Senator Scarr. You obviously haven't been reading the newspapers! I've been to Europe three times to progress a deal that benefits Australia's national interests. My job as Australia's trade minister is to get the best deal that we can for everyday Australians, including for our producers, our businesses, our workers and our consumers. But the deal we had on the table was not good enough, particularly for Australian farmers. Our government will continue to pursue trade agreements in the national interest to deliver benefits for everyday Australians and help our exporters diversify their trade. The PRESIDENT: Senator Sheldon, second supplementary?
