My question is also to the Minister for Foreign Affairs. I refer to reports that the former minister for trade, Andrew Robb, began working for the Chinese company Landbridge before the last election, a part-time position that earns him $880,000 a year. Has the foreign minister sought advice from the secretary of her department about whether Mr Robb breached the Prime Minister's Statement of ministerial standards, which imposes restrictions on post-ministerial employment? If not, why not?
