Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:50): I reject the suggestions at the conclusion of that question, Senator Thorpe. The second thing I would say to you is that my parents married when the White Australia policy was still in place. The PRESIDENT: Minister Wong, please resume your seat. Senator Thorpe, do you have a point of order? Senator Thorpe: Relevance. I don't need to know the history of the minister's upbringing. The PRESIDENT: Senator Thorpe, the minister is being relevant to your question. Minister Wong, please continue. Senator WONG: Yes. I'm responding to your point about change. My parents married when the White Australia policy was still in place. It was a Labor government which removed the last vestiges of the White Australia policy. Honourable senators interjecting— Senator WONG: It was a Labor government which introduced the Racial Discrimination Act. It was a Labor government which introduced the Sex Discrimination Act. It was a Labor government which introduced the native title legislation. Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Minister Wong, please resume your seat. Order across the chamber! Minister, did you wish to continue, or have you finished your contribution? Senator WONG: My point— Honourable senators interjecting— Senator WONG: Are we doing the withdrawal or are we finishing the question? The PRESIDENT: Order! I remind senators on my left that this is Senator Thorpe's question. Senator Thorpe is entitled to hear the response. Senator Henderson: Point of order: Senator Ayres just made an unparliamentary remark, which I won't repeat. I would ask him to withdraw it. The PRESIDENT: Senator Ayres, if you made an unparliamentary remark, I'd ask you to withdraw it. Senator Ayres: I withdraw. The PRESIDENT: Thank you very much. I'm going to ask for silence while Minister Wong continues. Senator WONG: The history of this country shows what change Labor governments deliver. The PRESIDENT: Senator Thorpe, second supplementary?
