Listening to @RNDrive . I have seen the brief that was provided to @Barnaby_Joyce. The documentation came from the department, not the QLD Government. Before he approved the purchase he should have made his own inquiry.
The Australian Government Solicitor acted for Commonwealth. Did he ask any questions of the AGS about the entity he was dealing with? #watergate
Did he ask why the Department were using a limited tender in preference to an approach to the market?
What conversations did @Barnaby_Joyce have with his parliamentary colleague, Angus Taylor, in relation to this transactions?
. @Barnaby_Joyce YOU, as Minister, are supposed to do YOUR own due diligence for transactions approved by YOU. Its not the responsibility of the Queensland government, nor the Labor Party. Take responsibility for your own conduct.
My Senate Order for Production called for all documents relevant to purchases of water across the Basin from 1 January 2017. Why are there no Queensland documents in the documents released to the Senate?
@Barnaby_Joyce Your explanations show why you should never be given a ministerial role ever again. And, as a final comment, there was no need to be rude to a journalist just doing her job.
