QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Mr WILKIE (Clark) (14:14): My question is to the Attorney-General. Last week, Australian Taxation Office whistleblower Richard Boyle was sentenced after facing a lengthy prosecution for blowing the whistle on egregious wrongdoing in the ATO. His case was, of course, yet another demonstration that our whistleblower protections are deeply inadequate.

Minister, exactly when will the government table the necessary amendments to the Public Interest Disclosure Act and the Corporations Act so that whistleblowers aren't the ones being punished?
