No, I can't confirm that because I don't know, but I wouldn't be at all surprised. As I said in answer to Senator Pratt's primary question, the Liberal Party receives donations, including in Western Australia, from business people, including Chinese business people. By the way, there is no rule against business people donating money to political parties because they're Chinese, and I wonder what you're getting at. The fact is that we have a very rigorous disclosure regime for political donations under the Commonwealth Electoral Act, and I can assure you that the Liberal Party is strictly compliant.
