CANBERRA, AUSTRALIA - FEBRUARY 22: Senator Linda Reynolds during Question Time in the Senate on February 22, 2021 in Canberra, Australia. The Coalition is under pressure after a third woman alleges she was sexually assaulted almost five years ago by the same former Morrison government adviser accused of the 2019 rape of a female colleague working for Senator ReynoldsÃ¢â¬â¢ office in Parliament House. Disturbing allegations aired last week that a young political staffer, Brittany Higgins, was sexually assaulted on a couch whilst working for Senator Linda ReynoldsÃ¢â¬â¢ office in Parliament House in 2019. Senator Reynolds has offered Ms Higgins an unreserved apology, but has not comprehensively answered a number of specific questions going to her knowledge of events and her actions in the aftermath.
