2015: "The prime minister, Tony Abbott, says Bronwyn Bishop has admitted an “error of judgment” in making a $5,000 travel claim for helicopter charter to attend a Liberal party fundraiser, but insisted that she would not be stepping down as Speaker while the Department of Finance investigation takes place. “She’s a good speaker, she has my confidence,” he told reporters in Queensland on Saturday." http://gu.com/p/4anc4?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
