My question is to the Minister for Resources and Northern Australia, Senator Canavan. Earlier this week, the minister advised the Senate that his appointment of Deputy Prime Minister Joyce's former media advisor in his office was, and I quote, 'Approved through consultation between my office and the Deputy Prime Minister's office'. Who did the minister first discuss the appointment with and when? Who approved the appointment? And when was it approved?
