QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator HENDERSON (Victoria) (14:51): My question is to the Minister for Trade and Tourism, Senator Farrell. I refer to the government's decision to sign the Belem declaration on the transition away from fossil fuels, which is an agreement to end Australia's second-largest and third-largest—being coal and gas respectively—exports. Did the Minister for Climate Change and Energy consult you before signing this agreement?

If so, when did you first learn of the details of the Belem declaration?
