The PRESIDENT
- The Standing Orders provide that an honorable senator cannot decline to serve on a Select Com mittee, though he may ask the Senate to be relieved from the duty of acting on such a Committee.
Senator GARDINER
- I desire to ask the Minister representing the Minister of Home Affairs, without notice, which member of the Ministry secured the services of a detective to investigate matters connected with the Ballarat election; were the services of the detective paid for by private sources, or out of the public funds; and, if the latter was the case, would he lay the information obtained on the table of the Senate?
Senator McCOLL
- The matter mentioned by the honorable senator is quite strange to me, and I have no information in regard to it.
Senator GARDINER
- I will give notice of the question.
