My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. I refer to the code of conduct for ministers, section 1.3 part (iii), published in June 2022, personally signed by the Prime Minister, which states: 'Ministers must accept that they are accountable for the exercise of the powers and functions of their office—that is, ensure that their conduct, representations and decisions … are open to public scrutiny.' Why is the Prime Minister failing to enforce this principle, deliberately withholding draft legislation from public scrutiny and requiring nondisclosure agreements be signed before stakeholders can scrutinise these proposed laws?
