My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to his answer yesterday in relation to the release of emails between himself and Julian Grill concerning his relationship with Brian Burke. Will he ensure that, as his office checks his email records for correspondence of any nature with Brian Burke, Graham Edwards or Julian Grill in relation to the ‘journalists’ dinner’ on 12 December 2005 or other meetings with Brian Burke, he also makes available correspondence sent from his personal computer or other email accounts that he may have? Will he ensure that correspondence with Sarah Burke is also included in his email search?

I thank the honourable member for his question. I am advised that the office has conducted a comprehensive search and cannot find any such correspondence.
