I have discussed these matters with the secretary of my department, Dr Parkinson, and he confirmed that in a letter to me, dated today, which reads: 'As you know, I have twice discussed with Mr Andrew Robb the obligations placed on former ministers by the Statement of Ministerial Standards. On both occasions, 28 February and 31 May 2017, Mr Robb has assured me he fully understands the obligations of the statement. He has also assured me he has complied with the statement, in particular paragraph 2.24, in terms of his post-cabinet and post-parliament activities and has reiterated that commitment in writing on 1 June 2017.' I will table that letter.
