My question is to the Prime Minister and refers to an aspect of this issue that has not been raised in the Senate. Is the Prime Minister aware that Minister Nash did not disclose at the meeting of the Australia and New Zealand Food Regulation Ministerial Council which the minister chaired in December that her chief of staff held a shareholding in a food industry lobbying firm, notwithstanding that conflicts to be declared were on the agenda? Why hasn't the Prime Minister taken any action in accordance with his own ministerial code of conduct?
