My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the Prime Minister's statement during question time last Wednesday that the Assistant Minister for Health has done nothing wrong. If this is the case, will the Prime Minister release the document detailing how the minister's former chief of staff's conflict of interest was to be managed? If not, why not?
Tony Abbott Warringah, Liberal Party, Prime Minister
