My question is to the Minister for Employment, Skills, Small and Family Business, Senator Cash. A former Liberal staffer who worked for the minister in a senior capacity asserts in a complaint made to the Department of Finance that she faced bullying and gaslighting in the minister's office due to her relationship with Minister Tudge. She said:

During this time the Minister was also posting text messages on the office WhatsApp group that I felt were attacking and demeaning towards myself.

Is this true?
