My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the Prime Minister's answer in question time on Monday, when he said Senator Nash's chief of staff:

… was required to divest himself of a shareholding

in his wife's business.

I also refer to the Special Minister of State's statement in Senate estimates last night that Senator Nash's chief of staff was not required to divest his interest in a lobbying firm. Who has misled the parliament—the Prime Minister or the Special Minister of State?
