Senator CAMERON (New South Wales) (14:12): My question is to the Attorney-General, Senator Brandis. On 12 September when asked whether he stood by his assurance to the Senate that he had consulted the Solicitor-General on the Legal Services Amendment (Solicitor-General Opinions) Direction 2016, the Attorney-General said: Yes, I do. I again ask the Attorney-General: do you stand by this assurance?
