QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Mr KENNEDY (Cook) (14:11): My question is to the Prime Minister. Reports in today's Herald say Toorak businessman, Kunal Shah, met with the Prime Minister and Daniel Andrews in November 2024. Mr Shah has been charged with selling hundreds of swords and prohibited weapons, including one to a child.

Be straight with Australians. What did the Prime Minister discuss with Mr Shah over dinner? The SPEAKER: The manager?

Mr Burke: There's still not, even after the rephrase, anything that's connected to the Prime Minister's official duties—nothing. It's: what did somebody else say to him? The SPEAKER: Yes.

You've got to make it reasonable and responsible about what the Prime Minister's responsibility is—not an event or something that happened. The question we can get in order, because it's referring to media reports today. So there's no question about that.

There's no problem with that. If you can clean it up a little bit, and make it short and sharp, and then make it directly responsible to the Prime Minister. Mr KENNEDY: My question is to the Prime Minister.

Reports in today's Herald say Toorak businessman, Kunal Shah, met with the Prime Minister and Daniel Andrews in November 2024. Mr Shah has now been charged with selling hundreds of swords and prohibited weapons, including one to a child. Be straight with Australians, Prime Minister.

How does this align with your agenda in keeping Australians safe, and what was discussed during this dinner?
