My question is to the Minister for Women, Senator Payne. On the treatment of women in the parliament, the Minister for Women has said, 'The only way it will change is if we, as parliamentarians, own the problems, own the failings and make the necessary changes.' Attorney-General Porter has sat on the Respect@work report for a year, responding to only three of the 55 recommendations. Will the Minister for Women call on the Attorney-General to own his failings and make the necessary changes to implement the remaining 52 recommendations one year on?
