Mr CREAN (2:54 PM) —My question is to the Minister for Employment, Workplace Relations and Small Business. Minister, do you recall saying on AM, on 16 October, the following about Ms X, later revealed as Ingrid Odgers:

It's pretty obvious to me all along that this person has taken those details and gone off and effectively defrauded the Commonwealth.

Minister, on what basis did you determine Ms Odgers was guilty of fraud, and do you stand by your statement on AM?


Mr REITH (Minister for Employment, Workplace Relations and Small Business) —I made that statement based on the Solicitor-General's report which was released the day before.
