I seek leave to make a statement regarding a ministerial absence.

Leave granted.

I advise the Senate that Senator Payne will be absent from question time from Wednesday, 31 July 2019 to Thursday, 1 August 2019 due to ministerial business overseas. In Senator Payne's absence, I will represent the Attorney-General and the Minister for Industrial Relations, Senator Reynolds will represent the Minister for Foreign Affairs and the Minister for International Development and the Pacific, and Senator Ruston will represent the Minister for Women.
