QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE › Minister for Small and Family Business, Skills and Vocational Education
Senator FARRELL (South Australia—Deputy Leader of the Opposition in the Senate) (15:02): My question is to Senator Cormann, the Minister representing the Special Minister of State. I refer to Minister Cash's answer yesterday which directed questions on legal costs for her former staff involved in the AWU court proceedings to the Department of Finance. I ask the minister: can the minister advise the Senate whether the Morrison government has agreed to indemnify current or former employees of Minister Cash's office involved in the current legal proceedings or cover in any other way associated legal costs?
