Senator SINGH (Tasmania) (14:14): My question is to the Minister for Finance, Senator Cormann. I refer to paragraph 2.5 of the Commonwealth Government Business Enterprise Governance and Oversight Guidelines, which requires GBEs to 'avoid activities that could give rise to questions about their political impartiality'. Can the minister advise the Senate how the request by this minister and the former Minister for Communications for nbn co to include a distorted counterfactual of Labor's NBN plan in their latest corporate plan is consistent with this requirement?
