My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the speech delivered to the Centre for Independent Studies by Dyson Heydon AC, QC shortly before his appointment as royal commissioner. Prime Minister, was this the independent speech of a retired judge who was above politics or a job application for a partisan role? Will his commission be withdrawn?
