My question is to the Prime Minister. In the interests of transparency, will the Prime Minister tell the House what it is costing taxpayers to engage Dyson Heydon? Can the Prime Minister confirm that Mr Heydon's salary is more than the $3.3 million being paid to counsel assisting the royal commission, Mr Stoljar? Is the Prime Minister aware that the Howard government disclosed the salary for Commissioner Cole?
