A spokesperson 13 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,880 Speaker 2: for Australia's Trade Minister, Don Farrell said we will continue 14 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 2: to advocate for the removal of all tariffs in line 15 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 2: with our free trade agreement. 16 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: The Northern terror government has passed a raft of legislative 17 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: amendments to the state's Youth Justice Act, ditching the previous 18 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: government's detention as a last resort policy.
