APOLOGY TO SENATOR SARAH HANSON-YOUNG
On 20 April 2021, I participated in an interview on Sky News with Rita Panahi concerning an anti-logging protest.
During that interview I made some allegations about Senator Sarah Hanson-Young. I accept that the claims made about Senator Hanson-Young during that interview were false and defamatory.
I unconditionally withdraw those claims and unreservedly apologise to Sarah Hanson-Young for the hurt and offense caused to her by reason of my conduct.
