Mr BROUGH (Fisher—Minister for Defence Materiel and Science and Special Minister of State) (11:22): I seek the indulgence of the chair to clarify my comments of yesterday. The SPEAKER: The Special Minister of State may proceed on indulgence. Mr BROUGH: Yesterday, during question time, I said: … in relation to the 60 Minutes interview, what was put to air was not the full question … My recollection of the interview was that the question was put to me in a somewhat disjointed manner and I answered the question without clarifying precisely what part of the question I was responding to. This is confirmed by the tape by 60 Minutes, and that was the reason for my answer yesterday. I have taken the opportunity to review the tape and transcript, and I apologise to the House if my statement yesterday unwittingly added to the confusion rather than clarifying the matter.
