My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the Prime Minister's statement today that she knew absolutely nothing about the workings of the AWU Workplace Reform Association or any bank accounts associated with it. I also refer to her statement to Slater & Gordon in 1995 that her thinking behind the decision to register an incorporated association was to avoid disputes about who owned the funds in the bank account and so that the association was the holder of the account. What steps did she take to ensure the association was authorised by the Australian Workers Union to open such a bank account bearing its name? (Time expired)
