Thank you, Mr President. I've stated before that it is common practice for legal assistance to be provided to ministers when it relates to proceedings involving their ministerial duties. Senator Wong received legal assistance via the Australian government—this is not an unusual procedure—as did Wayne Swan and Kevin Rudd. So the answer is: yes, I'm following the normal government procedure.
