Mr DREYFUS (Isaacs—Deputy Manager of Opposition Business) (15:01): My question is to the Special Minister of State. I refer to the minister's answer yesterday during question time, when he referred to a statement. That statement makes reference to 'allegations involving the disclosure of diary notes of Mr Slipper'. Directly in that context, I ask the minister: did you ask James Ashby to procure copies of Peter Slipper's diary for you? Does the government regard an action of that nature as appropriate?
