I table a response to a question taken on notice during question time on 10 September 2018 asked by Senator Marshall relating to the matter of declarations of private interests made by the Minister for Home Affairs and seek leave to have the document incorporated in Hansard.

Leave granted.

The document read as follows—

Dear Mr President

I write with regard to a question Itook on notice from Senator Gavin Marshall on Monday 10 September 2018, on the matter of declarations of private interests made by the Minister for Home Affairs.

I am advised by the Minister for Home Affairs that he has at all times conducted himself in accordance with the relevant Cabinet Handbook rules.

I have copied this letter to Senator Marshall.

Kind regards

from the Minister for Finance and the Public Service, Senator the Hon Mathias Cormann
