Brandis, Sen George

Senator BRANDIS (Queensland—Attorney-General, Vice-President of the Executive Council and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:04): It was before 3 March. I looked at some documents overnight, and I think it may have been in January 2016, but I will check that date. The point I make to you, Senator, is that the relevant discussion, which is said to constitute—at least as pointed to by Western Australian ministers—an arrangement or an agreement of some kind between the Commonwealth and the Western Australian government, took place in April 2015. I had no knowledge of or involvement in that whatsoever. I first became aware of it the following year. The PRESIDENT: Senator Gallagher, a final supplementary question.
