My question is to the Minister for Human Services. I refer to the minister's trip to China and his answer yesterday that he would fully assist with the Parkinson inquiry. Has the minister provided the Parkinson inquiry with evidence that proved that, at the time he undertook his trip to China, the minister paid for his own flights to and from China, accommodation in China, internal travel in China and incidentals, including meals, in China? Will the minister also provide this evidence to the parliament?

I thank the member for his question and I refer the member to my response yesterday.
