Angus Taylor (Hume, Liberal Party, Shadow Minister for Defence) Share this | Hansard source

Last night in the Federation Chamber, the member for Kooyong claimed I had failed to speak on the Defence Amendment (Parliamentary Joint Committee on Defence) Bill 2025 or move my second reading amendment to the legislation. The member should be aware that I did speak on this very important bill 10 hours earlier at the dispatch box right here in the chamber, where I also moved the amendment. Thanks to the very fine work of the Hansard office, my remarks were published by 3 pm, four hours before the member for Kooyong rose to speak. If the member for Kooyong is so eager to scrutinise defence, perhaps she could start by scrutinising the Hansard.
