GLADYS BEREJIKLIAN

* "I will not tolerate, never have and never will, any improper conduct by any MP."

* "At all times I've maintained a distinction between my personal and private life and the public office I hold ... at all times, if there's any example where I feel the integrity of the office someone holds is not to the standards expected of the public, of course I'll take action."

* "I don't set the rules on which business interests MPs are allowed to do. They are based on what is in the pecuniary interest register."

* "Regrettably, Mr (Daryl) Maguire approached a number of people in government, a number of public servants, he was rigorous in his attempts and his attempts amounted to nothing."

* "I trusted someone who didn't deserve to have my trust, and I'm deeply regretful of that. I really hate that happened."

* "I think everybody would argue, whether or not they choose to support me or believe me, that I was full and frank in my evidence yesterday."
