Angus Taylor says he has 'point of contact' with police but stays silent on metadata

Emissions reduction minister declines to say whether he has given download logs to Strike Force Garrad

The embattled emissions reduction minister, Angus Taylor, says he has established "an administrative point of contact" with the New South Wales police, but has declined to say whether he has handed over relevant metadata and download logs to Strike Force Garrad.

Taylor told parliament on Wednesday he had not yet been interviewed by detectives investigating a doctored City of Sydney council document but on Wednesday reported his office had established an administrative point of contact with the NSW police.
