Eastern Australia Agriculture was founded in 2007 by Taylor while he was working in investment banking and before he became a member of parliament. Taylor served briefly as a director of the Australian company between 2008 and 2009. We understand the ANAO has recently written to Senator Patrick and we have not been provided with a copy of the letter, the department said. The material relied on at the time supported the decision, the department said in response to questions from Guardian Australia. The auditor general declined to comment, saying the appropriate place to comment is to the parliament.
