          <by role="member" id="4338">The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:17):</by>  I thank the honourable member for his question. Over the weekend, I attended the Australian Leadership Retreat. There were plenty of excellent speakers. One of them was Anthony Scaramucci. Of course, it's Chatham House Rules at these things, so I can't go into a lot of details, but let's just say that he was very insightful with his comments regarding the White House and, most importantly, the relationship between the United States and Australia.</text>

          <by role="member" id="4338">The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL:</by>  It is a complicated period of time that we are in at the moment. We know that the breakdown in terms of the trade deal between the US and China has very significant implications for Australia, so this was a major focus for the retreat. I note also that we received an excellent presentation from former prime minister Kevin Rudd on the same topic. He is now based in the US and has specific, very detailed insight into the implications of the breakdown of that trade negotiation, which occurred while I was actually in the US only last month.</text>
