Andrew Robb Goldstein, Liberal Party, Chairman of the Coalition Policy Development Committee
3:47 pm
Mr Speaker, I wish to make a personal explanation.
Peter Slipper Speaker
Does the honourable member claim to have been misrepresented?
Andrew Robb Goldstein, Liberal Party, Chairman of the Coalition Policy Development Committee
Yes, I do—most pathetically, Mr Speaker. Today the Treasurer, frothing at the mouth, made the accusation that I had leaked material from a coalition committee of which I am the deputy chairman. It is a total falsehood and the Treasurer should be asked to withdraw that accusation.
Peter Slipper Speaker
The honourable member has shown where he has been misrepresented.
