As part of the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array (PPTA) project, frequent observations of 20 millisecond pulsars are made using the Parkes 64-m radio telescope. Variations in the mean position angle of the 20 millisecond pulsars can be studied by the PPTA data being recorded in full-polarization mode. We briefly discuss these results.
