SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said on Saturday he was "sickened" by allegations of sexual assault in Parliament House, adding that there was a "culture" problem at the government building. Brittany Higgins said on Friday, in a statement reported by the Australian Broadcasting Corp (ABC), that the man had raped her two years ago in parliament. "I think we've got a problem in the parliament and the workplace culture that exists there," Morrison told reporters in Sydney on Saturday. Reuters was not able to reach the second woman or the man. The accusation by the second woman had not been referred to police, the liaison officer said.
