My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to reports the health minister unleashed a torrent of expletives and physically intimidated a 71-year-old grandmother. Why did the Prime Minister and his office ignore this behaviour for over six months, given the high standards expected of ministers under his ministerial standards? Is the PM so arrogant and so out of touch that he chose to ignore this shocking behaviour until it was raised by the media?
