Response by Mr Henry Ergas

Pursuant to Resolution 5(7)(b) of the Senate of 25 February 1988

Reply to comments by Senator the Hon Stephen Conroy in the Senate
(13 October 2011)

On Thursday 13 October, 2011, Senator Conroy made the following statement in the Senate:

"Henry Ergas went bankrupt".

This statement is completely incorrect and has no basis in fact. It is plainly derogatory and had it been made outside Parliament, would have given rise to proceedings for defamation.

I therefore request that a correction be promptly entered in Hansard stating:

"Senator Conroy's statement is completely incorrect and has no basis in fact."

Yours sincerely,

Henry ERGAS
