Senator BIRMINGHAM (South Australia—Leader of the Opposition in the Senate) (14:00): My question is to the Minister for Finance, Senator Gallagher. I refer the minister to her statement to the Senate earlier today regarding knowledge of the sexual assault allegations made by Ms Brittany Higgins, in which the minister stated that she 'was provided with information in the days before the allegations were first reported'. Minister, when precisely did you first learn of any aspect of the allegations?
