| Former PM Kevin Rudd has accepted "ultimate responsibility" for Labor's botched home insulation program at the royal commission of inquiry in Brisbane.
"I have accepted ultimate responsibility for what was not just bad, but in this case, a deep tragedy, as it affected the lives of the families concerned," he said.
Mr Rudd also said the insulation program was terminated on advice of senior public servants when the taskforce was highly critical of occupational health and safety elements.
Earlier he said he's no handyman and had no idea what installing batts entailed at an inquiry into Labor's botched home insulation program.
Allowances have been made to break cabinet confidentiality in an extraordinary legal precedent at the royal commission's inquest.
