TAYLOR SCANDAL QUESTIONS REMAIN

Serious questions remain unanswered over Angus Taylor and his doctored documents scandal.

Two police investigations have now failed to clarify where Angus Taylor got his dodgy figures from.

Angus Taylor assured Parliament that this fabricated report was directly downloaded from the City of Sydney Council website.

We know this is not true as a law enforcement official confirmed, The document had to have been doctored from Canberra.

The public internet archives, the Trove database maintained by the National Library, confirmed that the correct version of the report was on the internet all through 2019.

We know the Department of Energy's draft letter provided to the Ministers office contained no reference to the City of Sydney's travel expenditure.

If Angus Taylor continues to refuse to come clean, then the Prime Minister must order a proper, independent and transparent investigation into his minister, and commit to making the findings public.
