Mr Hargreaves: That is Mrs Dunne, the former treasurer of the Currie Club.

MRS DUNNE: There is a clear problem here—

Mr Hargreaves: What about the Currie Club?

MRS DUNNE: Do you really want to know about the Currie Club?

Mr Hargreaves: I do—Currie Street, Red Hill.

MRS DUNNE: The Currie Club does not exist anymore.

Mr Hargreaves: No, but who was the signatory to it? You were.

MRS DUNNE: It consisted of 20 or 30 people and at one stage I was the signatory of a bank account that had $150 in it.

Mr Hargreaves: The secret society of fundraisers.

MR SPEAKER: Order, members! This debate does not invite additional material in relation to the Currie Club, whatever that was.

Mr Hargreaves: It is a fundraising activity.

MRS DUNNE: It was not a fundraising—

Mr Hargreaves: It was a fundraising activity. I got the minutes and the ABN number, the lot.

MRS DUNNE: He cannot read the minutes, then.

Mr Hargreaves: And who was the treasurer? Who was the treasurer with a conflict of interest representing Mr Humphries at the time? It was not me.

MRS DUNNE: Have you got all the collected papers of the Currie Club and read them?

Mr Seselja: That will be the front page tomorrow, John—Currie Club scandal.

MRS DUNNE: Yes.
