QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Mr HAWKE (Mitchell—Manager of Opposition Business) (15:11): My question is to the Prime Minister. On the front page of the Age today, it is reported that multiple CFMEU officials received gold bracelets as kickbacks from underworld crime figures. Also today, on the front page of the Courier-Mail, the CFMEU is openly threatening the Queensland parliament.

Can the Prime Minister advise the House what instructions his government has given to his hand-picked CFMEU administrator, Mark Irving, regarding the lawless conduct of this union and its members across the country?
