Senators in this chamber and the world out there know quite well that the ANU is rife with scandals, with budgetary mismanagement, with staff being bullied, with secrets being kept from staff. All Senator David Pocock is asking for is budgets; it is a public institution. All Senator David Pocock is asking for is staff surveys; again, it's a public institution, and it is staff that are being intimidated by the chancellor and the vice-chancellor. Here we have Labor and the coalition—and I'm sure Senator Pocock would agree with me—running a protection racket for the executive of the ANU. It is absolutely shameful—absolutely shameful!
