House debates Questions without Notice
Special Minister of State

My question again is to the Special Minister of State. In the minister's statement earlier today, he claimed that he could have been answering a different part of the question when he answered on 60 Minutes: 'Yes, I did.' Given that it is obvious from the tapes that there is only one question which was asked, isn't it clear that the minister misled the House again this morning?
Mal Brough Fisher, Liberal Party, Special Minister of State
I confirm that I did not mislead the House. I refer you to my earlier answers.
