My question is to the Prime Minister. People in my electorate of Mackellar are concerned about recent media reports that allege the government offered the coalition more personal staff in exchange for their support of the controversial Freedom of Information Amendment Bill. To avoid a perceived conflict of interest, will the Prime Minister commit to ensuring personal staff allocations for non-government parliamentarians are decided by an independent body, rather than awarded at the discretion of the prime minister of the day?
