I stand by what I said in the chamber yesterday. Just to be very clear, on 1 April I met with the AFP, Brittany and my then chief of staff. As I've said in this chamber previously, during the course of that meeting it became apparent to me that the matter was more serious than a security breach, of which I had been previously advised. That same day I organised for Brittany to meet with the AFP, something which I have been advised did occur. By way of follow-up and clarification, I met briefly with the Australian Federal Police on 4 April at their request. I commenced the meeting alone and I was then joined for a brief period by my chief of staff.
