QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator FARRELL (South Australia—Minister for Trade and Tourism, Special Minister of State and Deputy Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:21): I refuse to take advantage of your youth and inexperience, Senator Hanson-Young. Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Come to order! I do need to hear Minister Farrell's answer.

Senator FARRELL: Senator Hanson-Young, I do take a drug for my diabetes called Ozempic, and, amongst other things, it's an anti-ageing drug. I am now five years younger than when I first started taking it. Senator Hanson-Young, we are not afraid of Donald Trump.

The answer specifically to your question is no.
