My question is to the minister representing the Treasurer, Senator Gallagher. I refer the minister to the confronting revelations exposed though a recent Four Corners expose on Perth Mint, which unearthed alleged gold doping, money laundering and a complete breakdown of compliance and reporting requirements. I also note AUSTRAC's investigation into the Perth Mint, the London Bullion Market Association's incident review process that's underway, revelations around the US state model commodity code coming to light and, importantly, comments from your Treasurer, who described these revelations as 'incredibly concerning and very troubling'. Noting that the Western Australian opposition is calling for a royal commission, what is the response of the Albanese government?
