Former prime minister Kevin Rudd has launched legal action against the ABC, after it published details of one of the secret cabinet documents.
The document related to his Labor government's home insulation scheme.
In a statement, Mr Rudd said the document was about financial and administrative risks to the program for the Commonwealth, not safety risks, and rejected suggestions he ignored safety warnings as a "lie".
Speaking on the ABC, Independent Tasmanian senator Andrew Wilkie has called for an inquiry to be launched, independent of government.
