House debates Questions without Notice
Commonwealth Integrity Commission
Mark Dreyfus Isaacs, Australian Labor Party, Shadow Attorney General

My question is to the Prime Minister. Last week the Prime Minister said the national anticorruption commission he promised in December 2018 could be legislated before the election. Now the Attorney-General has confirmed the government will not put legislation to parliament this term. Why won't the Prime Minister do his job and deliver an anticorruption commission?
Scott Morrison Cook, Liberal Party, Prime Minister
MORRISON (—) (): We've tabled our legislation for that integrity commission.

We have tabled it. The Labor Party don't support it, and that's why it's not proceeding.
