Christian Porter (Pearce, Liberal Party, Minister for Social Services) Share this | Hansard source

They are not terms that I have ever heard the Treasurer use with respect to that particular issue. It is the case that, when you put in a freedom of information request of that nature, it covers any instance where any minister or any member of the executive has forwarded an article written in the press that has used any of the Boolean search terms that you have raised. It does not surprise me that a puerile request of that nature has been denied because of the outrageous amount of time that it would take to look through documents that include the forwarding of articles written in the media. It does not surprise me that that stunt has been declined by the departments, through advice, because of the amount of time that it would take up.
