I thank the Minister for her statement and commend the support that we are offering to our allies. I agree with Mrs Latham and my hon. Friend Catherine West about the vital role of Parliaments and parliamentary engagement, especially around the issue of climate diplomacy. Might the Minister want to say to all new hon. Members that joining the CPA and getting involved in having those relationships with parliamentarians not just in Australia, but across the Commonwealth, would be a very good idea?
