My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Brandis. I refer to the public commentary of numerous coalition backbenchers on the US election. This morning the member for Hughes said about President-elect Trump's plea to cancel the Paris agreement on climate change:

Paris is cactus.

Is the comment consistent with the Prime Minister's announcement today that Australia has ratified its Paris climate targets?
