My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Cormann. In response to allegations aired earlier this year about branch stacking and misuse of public funds by members of the Victorian Labor Party, the Prime Minister said the issue raised many questions the Leader of the Opposition had to answer, yet when allegations of branch stacking and misuse of taxpayer funds by the Assistant Treasurer, Mr Sukkar, and a senior federal Liberal member were aired this week the Prime Minister said it was an issue for the Victorian Liberal Party and not his responsibility. Why the double standard on integrity?
