House debates Questions without Notice

Fuel Prices

Thursday, 5 June 2008 House of Representatives

Peter Dutton

Peter Dutton Dickson, Liberal Party, Shadow Minister for Finance, Competition Policy and Deregulation

2:37 pm

My question is to the Assistant Treasurer and Minister for Competition Policy and Consumer Affairs. I refer the minister to his remarks yesterday in the House where he said that the Office of Parliamentary Counsel was integrally involved in the drafting of Fuelwatch. I also refer the minister to evidence provided to Senate estimates by senior Treasury officials last night, who said that the Office of Parliamentary Counsel was not present during the marathon 35-hour all-night drafting session. Will the minister now take the opportunity to correct the record?
