My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister and the Minister for Tertiary Education, Skills, Jobs and Workplace Relations, Senator Evans. I refer the minister to a statement made by the member for Dobell to Michael Smith on 2UE radio where he admits he authorised the use of his union funded credit card to pay for escort services. Given the member for Dobell's public admission, can the minister advise whether the member for Dobell has been interviewed by Fair Work Australia and whether or not he has made a similar admission when interviewed by Fair Work Australia? What guarantees can the minister provide to the Senate to ensure Fair Work Australia is aware of the comments made by the member for Dobell?
