Royal Commission into Trade Union Governance and Corruption

Wednesday, 19 August 2015 House of Representatives

Tony Abbott

Tony Abbott Warringah, Liberal Party, Prime Minister

Yet again, Labor members are verballing a distinguished former High Court judge. It is actually a criminal offence to attack a serving royal commissioner. It is actually a criminal offence. Now I am sure that former justice Dyson Heydon is big enough to deal with the vicious slander from members opposite to which he has been exposed. He is an honourable man. He should be allowed to get on with his job. Members opposite should stop trying to protect and defend the indefensible. (Time expired)
