House debates Questions without Notice
Member for Dickson
Mr Tony Burke Watson, Australian Labor Party, Manager of Opposition Business (House)

My question is to Prime Minister: I refer to the Cabinet Handbook and to reports that the childcare centres owned by the member for Dickson's trust received over $5 million in public money. Given the member for Dickson has confirmed that he excused himself from Howard government discussions on child care, and given that Peta Credlin has confirmed that he excused himself from Abbott government discussions on child care, did the former minister excuse himself from Turnbull government discussions on child care?

I will take that question on notice. I will get advice from the cabinet secretary and I will report back to the House as soon as I have it.
