information to Mr Milligan to expand on my answer yesterday. As soon as the Hansard came through yesterday afternoon I sent it through to my directorate and asked for some further information so that I could provide it to Mr Milligan. As for my claimed lack of interest in the many issues impacting Indigenous Canberrans, I absolutely and categorically refute that.
I would note that I wrote to Mr Milligan on his becoming the shadow minister for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander affairs and offered him a briefing on any matter in relation to that portfolio in which he was interested, and I now renew that offer. Mr Milligan is always welcome to ask me for a briefing on any matter. Of course, this is an issue where we would prefer that we took a bipartisan approach to some of Canberra’s most vulnerable people.
