My question is to the Prime Minister. Given the Prime Minister is extensively quoted in a report on the front page of The Australian newspaper, which appears to include a leaked submission to the intelligence committee, and given that the report is based on an exclusive interview conducted with the Prime Minister during his trip to Argentina for the G20, can the Prime Minister guarantee that neither he nor his office played any role in the leaking of a confidential submission, which is a criminal offence under national security laws?
