Mr President, I have a supplementary question. I refer to Ms Bishop's refusal this morning to disclose whether or not she had supported the Prime Minister in the spill ballot. I also refer to the fact that six ministers are reported to have supported the spill motion yesterday. Has the Prime Minister sought an assurance from Ms Bishop that she voted against the spill and was that assurance given?
