PM demands ‘this place must change’ in wake of alleged Parliament House rape
Tuesday February 16, 2021
Prime Minister Scott Morrison says the alleged rape of a former Liberal Party staffer is a wake-up call that must drive change within Parliament House.
He has asked Curtin MP Celia Hammond, a former university vice chancellor, to work with party whips and MPs to improve workplace standards and protect staff.
“We all have a role to play in that. I do, members of this place do,” he told reporters in Canberra on Tuesday.
Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet deputy secretary Stephanie Foster will also review processes for workplace allegations.
