My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the Prime Minister's statement yesterday and to the affidavit of Ian Cambridge that around $100,000 from the AWU slush fund was used to purchase the house in Fitzroy. Is the Prime Minister aware that this house was sold in February 1996? The AWU was unable to recover the funds as it knew nothing of the association she helped set up or its slush fund. Does the Prime Minister agree that had she alerted the AWU to the existence of the association the union could have prevented further fraud?
