SenateMonday 17 August 2026

Crimes and Other Legislation Amendment (Omnibus No. 1) Bill 2026

Senator GREEN (Queensland—Assistant Minister for Tourism, Assistant Minister for Pacific Island Affairs and Assistant Minister for Northern Australia) (18:40): I will have to take that on notice. I don't have in front of me, going back to the establishment of the DPP, where there have been conflicts of interest. What I can say to you is that I've been through, with you and Senator Cash, the current arrangements that are in place that would require the DPP to take leave.

There is no conflict that has been currently recognised for that to occur, but, if it were to occur, that's the process that would be followed.
