My question is again to the Prime Minister. Former counsel assisting the Independent Commission Against Corruption Geoffrey Watson SC said the Prime Minister's phone call to the New South Wales Police Commissioner 'should never have happened'. He stated, 'It just looks like he's applying pressure,' and, 'It can't be anything else—it must be a favour because why else would he be calling?' I again ask: how on earth was that phone call appropriate?
