SenateThursday 5 February 2026

QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator SHOEBRIDGE (New South Wales) (14:21): Well, that says a lot, doesn't it? They have no idea whether or not he has resigned. Minister, a bombshell letter from the Attorney-General to Commissioner Brereton, sent in October of last year, pointed out repeated failures of Commissioner Brereton to disclose his moonlighting with the IGADF to the Senate, to the former A-G and to the current A-G.

Given this, does Commissioner Brereton seriously have the confidence of the Albanese government to head the National Anti-Corruption Commission?
