立法院韓國瑜院長於本（4）月28日晚間，在「台灣與澳洲、紐西蘭國會友好聯誼會」會長暨民進黨邱議瑩委員、國民黨陳永康委員、民眾黨許忠信委員等人陪同下，款宴「澳大利亞跨黨派國會議員團」一行7人。外交部甄國清主任秘書、澳洲辦事處馮國斌（Robert Fergusson）代表等人亦陪同出席。
On the evening of April 28, Legislative Yuan President Daniel K.Y. Han (韓國瑜) hosted a banquet for a seven-member delegation of cross-party Australian parliamentarians, accompanied by Chair of the Taiwan-Australia and New Zealand Inter-Parliamentary Amity Association and DPP Legislator Chiu Yi-Ying, KMT Legislator Adm. Chen Yeong-Kang, and TPP Legislator Hsu Chung-Hsin. Secretary-General Daniel Kuo-Ching Chen of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Representative Robert Fergusson of the Australian Office were also in attendance.
韓院長致詞時首先歡迎訪團到訪，並表示立法委員與他國國會議員交流，彼此更能理解對方的職責，以及面臨的挑戰與肩負的壓力與責任，使本日的相聚更顯珍貴，透過面對面交流經驗與分享觀點，在相互理解中建立更深厚的連結。
In his opening remarks, President Han warmly welcomed the delegation. He noted that communication between lawmakers and their foreign counterparts fosters a deeper mutual understanding of their respective duties, as well as their unique challenges, pressures, and responsibilities. He added that such common ground makes today's gathering all the more precious and that stronger connections rooted in mutual understanding can be built through face-to-face exchanges of experience and perspectives.
韓院長續稱，當今全球局勢瞬息萬變，各種挑戰層出不窮，面對不同的情境，須採取最適切的方式加以因應。澳洲與台灣為民主夥伴，在國會對國會的互動中，最能體現誠意與相互理解，創造更多合作機會，進一步深化台澳雙邊關係。院長最後表示，民主生活方式、國防安全及兩岸和平為目前台灣人民共同希冀的三個願望，期盼國際社會持續予以理解與尊重。
He went on to stress that with various challenges arising in today’s fast-changing global landscape, tailored measures must be taken to address various scenarios. He stated that Australia and Taiwan are democratic partners, and that parliament-to-parliament interactions not only embody sincerity and mutual understanding, but also create more opportunities for cooperation, thereby further deepening the bilateral bond between Taiwan and Australia. In closing, President Han underlined the importance for the international community to understand and respect the three major aspirations of the people of Taiwan, namely, a democratic way of life, defensive security, and peace across the Taiwan Strait.
團長帛朗（Carol Brown）參議員致詞時表示，該團團員來自澳大利亞不同政黨，擁有多元的立場與觀點，但在關心台灣及支持台澳關係等重要議題上，始終展現出高度共識，並深刻理解台灣在區域中的關鍵地位，也同樣重視台灣與澳洲之間穩固而長遠的夥伴關係。
In her remarks, delegation leader Senator Carol Brown mentioned that while members of the delegation represent different political parties with diverse stances and perspectives, they share a strong consensus on key issues such as supporting Taiwan and strengthening Australia-Taiwan relations. She emphasized that the delegation deeply understands Taiwan’s pivotal role in the region and values the steadfast, long-term partnership between Taiwan and Australia.
帛朗參議員續指出，在台期間透過一系列豐富而深入的會議與交流，更加了解台灣所面對的各項議題，這些經驗，都是未來深化合作的重要基礎。期待能與在場委員在更輕鬆的情境下，持續就相關議題交換意見，進一步探討台灣與澳洲之間的合作契機與發展方向，為雙方關係注入更多正向動能。
Senator Brown proceeded to note that the productive and insightful meetings and exchanges during this visit have provided the delegation with a better understanding of various issues facing Taiwan. She expressed confidence that this experience will serve as an important foundation for enhancing future cooperation. She also expressed hope that the lawmakers at the banquet can continue to exchange views in this more relaxed setting, so as to explore opportunities for future cooperation and development and inject positive momentum into the bilateral relationship.
韓院長隨後邀請邱議瑩委員致詞。邱委員表示，憶及多年前曾在澳洲布里斯本求學，那段經歷迄今仍記憶猶新，並能深刻體會跨文化交流的珍貴與意義；作為「台灣與澳洲、紐西蘭國會友好聯誼會」的會長，將持續推動台澳國會交流及促進雙邊關係前進。
Following Ms. Brown’s remarks, President Han invited Legislator Chiu to also say a few words. Legislator Chiu shared her experience of studying in Brisbane, a memory she still holds dear. She mentioned that the experience has taught her the value and significance of cross-cultural engagement. She reiterated that as Chair of the Taiwan-Australia and New Zealand Inter-Parliamentary Amity Association, she will continue to promote parliamentary exchanges between Taiwan and Australia and strengthen bilateral ties.
雙方隨後就區域與台海情勢、台澳未來合作項目、立法院議事運作、國防預算特別條例審議情形等議題廣泛交換意見。晚宴歷約2小時，氣氛熱絡友好，最終在互贈紀念品及合影後圓滿結束。（2026/04/28）
The two sides subsequently discussed wide-ranging issues such as regional affairs and the situation in the Taiwan Strait, future areas of cooperation between Taiwan and Australia, the operations of the Legislative Yuan, and the review process of the special act for defense procurement. The dinner lasted approximately two hours in a warm and friendly atmosphere and concluded successfully with an exchange of gifts and a group photo. (2026/04/28)
