Source: Statement of Registrable Interests - this contains interests declared as at 30/07/19 and alterations since then.  

This statement contains interests declared as being held on 30/07/19 and any alterations since then, including new interests and amendments and deletions to existing interests. The date of an alteration is when it was declared to the register, not when the change occurred.

Unfortunately, due to Senate restrictions the interests of senators' spouses/partners and dependent children are not publicly disclosable.
