To clarify, no, I did not give advice. It was a clarification of an issue that occurred yesterday. I had discussions with Senator Ludlam yesterday afternoon once I became aware of the circumstances so that he was aware as soon as possible of the situation that existed. I did tell Senator Ludlam at the time that I would be making a statement to clarify the situation from yesterday, but I did not formally advise the opposition. If that was an omission on my part, I apologise.
