Kevin Rudd (Griffith, Australian Labor Party, Shadow Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade and International Security) Share this | Hansard source

My question is directed to the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Trade. I refer to his statement to parliament on 7 December last year when he said:

All the information that we had was provided to the Volcker inquiry.

Is the Deputy Prime Minister aware that the Wheat Export Authority CEO, Mr Taylor, has just told a Senate estimates committee, ‘The Wheat Export Authority did not provide any information directly through DFAT to the Volcker inquiry.’ Deputy Prime Minister, is this a fact?
