Mr. Speaker, day after day brings new sordid details about the employment minister's scandal. Yesterday, we learned that his company shares a mailing address with an international drug trafficker who has been busted for cocaine not once but twice. The minister has been caught out in falsehoods, caught faking indigenous identity to try to secure government contracts meant for real indigenous people, and his company is under investigation for nine fraud-related counts. Why on earth has the Prime Minister not fired this man?
