My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Birmingham. Monday night's Four Corners program aired offensive and sexist comments made by the Attorney-General, and a highly respected barrister familiar with his character and conduct queried the Attorney-General's integrity by saying he was 'deeply sexist and actually misogynist in his treatment of women, in the way that he spoke about women'. The Australian Human Rights Commission has conducted a national inquiry into sexual harassment in Australian workplaces. More than six months later, the Morrison government has still not responded. Why is a man described as 'deeply sexist and misogynistic' responsible for responding to this landmark report?
