My question is to the minister representing the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Senator Brandis. I refer to the Council of Foreign Ministers of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, which met in Jeddah on 18 and 19 June and at which Australian diplomatic representatives were present. Did the council note recent comments by Senator Brandis on the Middle East, call on the Australian government to respect its commitments under international law and ask member states to respond by taking necessary measures against Australia?
