Chris Evans (WA, Australian Labor Party, Leader of the Government in the Senate) Share this | Hansard source

The opposition ought to explain to the Australian people why they have refused to allow us to use the time of the parliament properly this week and why they, it seems, conspired to mislead the Senate during Senate committee hearings. What I think the Senate needs to know is: did Senator Abetz meet with Mr Grech before the hearings? Did he seek to misuse those hearings? I think he has to explain: was there a conspiracy involved?
