My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the government's responsibility for the Commonwealth Electoral Act. Victorian Liberal leader Matthew Guy is engulfed in a scandal for dining with alleged Mafia boss Tony Madafferi, who police say is guilty of drug trafficking, extortion and murder. It's reported the Victorian Liberals conspired to split Mr Madafferi's political donations into smaller amounts to avoid disclosure under federal electoral law. Has the government asked the Australian Federal Police to investigate whether any criminal offences have been committed under Commonwealth law?
