BARBARA POCOCK () (): My question is directed to Minister for Finance, Katy Gallagher. Yesterday the Senate's consultant inquiry released a report, supported across this chamber, which found that PwC engaged in a shocking and calculated breach of trust and a deliberate cover-up. The New South Wales government has suspended PwC from working on government tax. Queensland Treasury has banned contracts with PwC, as has the Reserve Bank. Meanwhile, your government continues to award contracts to PwC. One with the health department was published on AusTender just last week. When will you ban all contracts with PwC and cancel PwC's registration as a tax agent?
