Context; Pansy Wong resigned from her portfolio after it was revealed that on a trip to China in 2008 her husband Sammy Wong was involved in a business deal. An independent investigation of travel claims by Mrs Wong and her husband Sammy was ordered by Speaker Lockwood Smith. The trip was made with a 90 percent taxpayer-funded rebate on their airfares, and it is against the rules to use the allowance for private business. Mrs Wong has apologised and paid back the $474 rebate for the China trip. An Auditor-General's inquiry called for by the Labour opposition is not considered necessary. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
