My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Abetz. Is the Prime Minister aware that his captain's pick as CEO of the NBN, Mr Bill Morrow, started as CEO of Vodafone Australia in March 2012? Is the Prime Minister aware that in June 2012, during Mr Morrow's tenure as CEO, Vodafone Australia uncovered the illegal hacking of a journalist's phone records and texts and identified that it was a criminal breach of the Telecommunications Act? Is the Prime Minister also aware that Vodafone then hired KPMG to investigate this criminal act and that KPMG then produced a report for Vodafone confirming the criminal act took place?
