My question is to the Attorney-General, Senator Brandis. I refer to the censure of the Attorney-General passed by the Senate on 2 March 2015 for behaviour including failing to defend the President of the Australian Human Rights Commission, Professor Gillian Triggs. In light of the censure does the Attorney-General now accept it is his duty as Attorney-General to defend statutory officers?
