My question is to the Minister representing the Special Minister of State, Senator Cormann. I refer to Mr Brough's statement on 60 Minutes in 2014 when asked, 'Did you ask James Ashby to procure copies of Peter Slipper's diary for you?' He confessed, 'Yes, I did.' When asked the same question in parliament yesterday, Mr Brough recanted and said, 'No.' When was the minister telling the truth—on television or in parliament?
