CHRIS BISHOP (National): Thank you, Madam Chair. We had a good hearing of the Parliamentary Service annual review, but we canvassed very serious matters to do with the conduct of the Speaker, and I want to ask two particular questions at the start of this exchange to the Minister in charge of Parliamentary Service. In relation to the Francis Review and the publicly reported comments that have led to an ex gratia payment to a former employee of the Parliamentary Service, when did he find out that what he said was wrong, and who told him what he'd said was wrong, and why, thirdly—to start things off—he then told his lawyers to tell the plaintiff that he intended to plead truth in the defamation claim lodged by the plaintiff?
