Minister, in your previous answer you said that Australia has a good record when it comes to corruption. Indeed, we dropped in ranking in the annual corruption index. Today we've seen 32 former judges sign an open letter for the establishment of an anti-corruption watchdog. Minister, can you tell us why these judges are wrong, why our ranking has slid and why you refuse to make a commitment for a national anti-corruption watchdog in this term of parliament?
