My question is to the Prime Minister. Seven weeks ago, after repeated questioning, the Prime Minister told the House that his chief of staff would begin a process to respond to the formal complaint by Brittany Higgins that the Prime Minister's office had undermined her loved ones. What is the outcome of that process?

My chief of staff has continued to progress this matter, allowing for due process to be afforded to those involved. He has spoken with members of my office, members of the press gallery and others in the course of his work. I understand Ms Higgins has agreed to assist him in his inquiries. I expect this process to conclude when all matters have been able to be taken into consideration, including relevant information from Ms Higgins.
