Russell Broadbent (Monash, Liberal Party) Share this | Hansard source

on indulgence—I wish to make an unreserved apology to Professor Catherine Bennett, Chair of Epidemiology at Deakin University. Last night in the Federation Chamber, I spoke on the government's misinformation and disinformation bill. In reading directly from the information provided to me by Professor Ian Brighthope, I inadvertently attributed Professor Brighthope's comments to Professor Bennett. I again sincerely apologise to the parliament and to Professor Bennett for my mistake.
