Greens MP Adam Bandt has foreshadowed a no confidence motion against Mr Dutton for misleading Parliament Mr Dutton has denied misleading the House because he said he told the truth earlier this year when he denied having any personal connection to the people involved

Mr Dutton has been under pressure over his decision to approve visas for two women who had been stopped by Border Force officials who believed they would breach the conditions of their tourist visas by working.

Greens MP Adam Bandt has foreshadowed a motion of no confidence against Mr Dutton, saying the Minister misled Parliament over the issue.

Mr Bandt asked Mr Dutton earlier this year if he could rule out any connection between himself and the people he helped by letting the au pairs stay.

Mr Dutton denied to the House of Representatives that he had any personal connection.

He told the chamber in March he could "categorically rule out any personal connection or any other relationship" with the employers of either au pair.

But it later emerged that one of the employers, Russell Keag, had been in the Queensland Police at the same time as Mr Dutton.

On Monday, Mr Dutton told Parliament that Mr Bandt's claim that he had misled the House is completely false.

"I did not have a personal connection or any type of relationship with the people involved in these matters," Mr Dutton said.

"To the best of my knowledge, I have not socialised, met or had personal contact with the man involved.

"I finished work with the Queensland Police Service in July 1999, at that time from my recollection, there were 5,500 police officers within the Queensland Police Service," Mr Dutton said.

"No reasonable person could come to the conclusion that my professional association through working in the same large public service some 20 years ago constitutes either a personal connection or relationship.

Labor and the Greens tried to argue Mr Dutton's statement had seen him mislead the Parliament again, but the Prime Minister dismissed that claim.

During Question Time, Mr Bandt asked the PM whether Mr Dutton had breached ministerial standards.

Adam Bandt: "When I asked him on March 27 this year, the Minister for Home Affairs categorically ruled out any personal connection or other relationship with the intended employers in the au pair stories. "He went on to say 'I don't know these people'. But he later publicly confirmed he does know one of them, calling him a former police colleague he worked with over a period of two years. TV news aired a photo apparently of the two of them together. "This morning in Parliament, the Minister even implied they spoke to each other whilst working together but simply hadn't spoken since that time. "Prime Minister, hasn't the Minister clearly misled Parliament? Isn't this a clear breach of your ministerial standards? Will you now dismiss him?" Scott Morrison: "No."

Mr Dutton agreed to provide the Parliament with the email he received from Mr Keag requesting assistance with his Italian nanny's visa.

A Senate committee is investigating the use of Mr Dutton's ministerial powers to grant visas to the two European au pairs.

Former Border Force commissioner Roman Quaedvlieg made a submission to the committee last week saying he was contacted by Mr Dutton's chief of staff asking what could be done to help "the boss's mate".

Mr Quaedvlieg has been criticised for including inaccurate dates in information given to a senate inquiry investigating Mr Dutton's use of ministerial powers.

He conceded he made a mistake with dates, but he said the only "logical conclusion" was that there was a third case yet to come to light.

Mr Dutton responded at the time that it was a fabrication and that Mr Quaedvlieg was bitter at losing his job.

The Home Affairs Minister reiterated that in Parliament on Monday, saying "despite his evidence otherwise, no-one in my office spoke with the ABF commission on this matter".
