The first occasion was in relation to a committee hearing where it was revealed that she had sought the resignation of Dee Forbes and she rang me the next day to apologise because she forgot to tell me that she had sought the resignation of Ms Forbes. As I outlined to Senator Warfield, on the Monday there was a question about the knowledge of the Rory Coveney exit package and whether she, in fact, knew it was not a straightforward resignation and not tell me. She admitted that she did know and she should have told me, and she was sorry. That led on to the Monday and the two meetings on Wednesday.
