My question is also to the Attorney-General, Senator Brandis. On 4 May 2016, the Attorney-General tabled an explanatory statement regarding his directions to the Solicitor-General. The statement said:

As the Direction relates to the process for referring a question of law to the Solicitor-General, the Attorney-General has consulted the Solicitor-General.

Does the Attorney-General stand by this assurance?
