House debates Questions without Notice

Royal Commission into Trade Union Governance and Corruption

Tuesday, 18 August 2015 House of Representatives

Mr Tony Burke

Mr Tony Burke Watson, Australian Labor Party, Shadow Minister for Finance

2:55 pm

My question is to the Minister representing the Attorney-General. In question time on Thursday, after being asked specifically about when the Attorney or his office was first aware that Dyson Heydon had agreed to be keynote speaker at a Liberal Party event, the minister answered by saying that there had been contact that morning. Given that it emerged on the weekend that the Attorney-General's office received notice on 11 April, why has the minister failed yet again to come into this House to correct the record at the first available opportunity?
