I inform the House that the Prime Minister will be absent from question time today and tomorrow as he is in Japan attending the funeral of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. I will answer questions on behalf of the Prime Minister. The member for Barton will also be absent from question time today, and questions relating to the Indigenous Australians portfolio will be answered by the member for Kingston.
