My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the Prime Minister’s answer to the previous question on the Kirribilli function for business observers paying to attend the Liberal Party Federal Council when the Prime Minister said, ‘It was not a Liberal Party fundraising function’. If the Kirribilli function was not a fundraiser for the Liberal Party, why is $5,100 repayment being sought from the Liberal Party?

For the very good reason that other people attending the function were delegates to the federal council meeting.
