My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to the statement of Slater and Gordon yesterday and to her recent statements about her departure from the firm. Isn't it the case that, after she and Mr Wilson learned the AWU was intending to lay charges against him, he told the Prime Minister and Bernard Murphy his misuse of union funds could be exposed, placing the firm in a client conflict of interest, forcing her and Murphy to leave the firm and the loss of the AWU as a client? Why hasn't she explained the actual circumstances in which she left the firm in her recent statements? (Time expired)
