Title
Questions without Notice — United Nations Climate Change Conference- Members Suspension from the House
Description
<p class="speaker">Tanya Plibersek</p><p>My question is to the Minister for Foreign Affairs. I refer to reports last year that the minister went bananas because the Prime Minister's office insisted she be accompanied by the trade minister to the UN climate change conference in Lima. In this new era of good government, can the foreign minister advise whether she will be allowed to represent Australia at the UN climate change meeting in Paris unsupervised?</p> <p class="speaker">Julie Bishop</p>- This division put by the [member for Sturt](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/sturt/christopher_pyne), during a question relating to the [United Nations Climate Change Conference](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Climate_Change_conference) is unrelated to the question or answer, but rather a motion to have an interjecting member, the [member for Isaacs](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/isaacs/mark_dreyfus) who had been named by the [Speaker for the house](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/mackellar/bronwyn_bishop) under standing order 94(b) suspended from the service of the house.
- This suspension lasts 24 hours for a first offence in this calendar year according to standing order 94(d)(i).
<p>I thank the member for her question, but that is so yesterday.</p><p class="italic">Mr Dreyfus interjecting—</p> <p class="speaker">Bronwyn Bishop</p><p>The foreign minister has the call. The member for Isaacs will desist or leave. The choice is his.</p> <p class="speaker">Julie Bishop</p><p>What surprises me about this question is that the shadow foreign minister had such a poor record in government as a member of a cabinet that did so little to promote Australia's reputation and image overseas; that she was a member of a cabinet that so trashed our reputation. Whereas the coalition believes that our job in foreign policy is to project and protect our reputation as—</p><p class="italic">Mr Perrett interjecting—</p> <p class="speaker">Bronwyn Bishop</p><p>The member for Moreton will leave forthwith under 94(a). He is lucky not to be named.</p><p class="italic"> <i>The member for Moreton then left the chamber.</i></p> <p class="speaker">Julie Bishop</p><p>an open, liberal, Western democracy committed to freedom, committed to human rights; that we are an open, export-oriented economy, and all that we do in foreign policy is designed to project and protect that image and that reputation.</p><p class="italic">Mr Conroy interjecting—</p> <p class="speaker">Bronwyn Bishop</p><p>The member for Charlton will join him under 94(A).</p><p class="italic"><i>The member for Charlton then left the chamber.</i></p> <p class="speaker">Julie Bishop</p><p>I am just surprised that the member would even pop her head up today, because yesterday, when she asked me about the aid budget, she refused to acknowledge that the aid budget is in this position, because the opposition will not even pass savings that they took to the last election; that they so trashed our budget that we had a $48 billion deficit. Of course the cuts to the aid budget sit fairly and squarely with this shadow foreign minister as part of the cabinet that so destroyed our financial standing. What amazes me is that she actually has the gall to stand up here when she still believes that Africa is a country. I raise this because the shadow foreign minister has repeatedly said that Africa is a country, to the point where the 54 countries in Africa have started a campaign that 'Africa is not a country.'</p> <p class="speaker">Bronwyn Bishop</p><p>We will not have any props, thank you. The foreign minister will not use props.</p> <p class="speaker">Julie Bishop</p><p>This is a campaign begun by schools in Africa who want to reject the stereotypes, the misinformation—</p> <p class="speaker">Tony Burke</p><p>Madam Speaker, on a point of order—</p> <p class="speaker">Bronwyn Bishop</p><p>The member for Watson will resume his seat.</p><p class="italic">Mr Dreyfus interjecting—</p><p>The member for Isaacs will leave under 94(a).
