QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator DARMANIN (Victoria—Deputy Government Whip in the Senate) (14:07): My question is to the Minister for Women, Senator Gallagher. The World Economic Forum's Global gender gapreport has ranked Australia eighth in the world for gender equality, our highest ever result. In 2021 Australia ranked 50th.

Can the minister outline the actions the Albanese Labor government has taken to drive this improvement and what it means for Australia's women and girls?
