My question is also to the minister representing the Minister for the Environment, Senator Birmingham. I refer to reports that the now Minister for Energy and Emissions Reduction, Mr Angus Taylor, met with the then Minister for the Environment's, Mr Frydenberg's, office and departmental officials in 2017 about a compliance action relating to his private land holdings. Can the minister confirm a company in which Mr Taylor has an interest, Jam Land Pty Ltd, is now being investigated by the Department of the Environment and Energy in relation to the alleged illegal land clearing of critically endangered grasslands?
