Brittany Higgins welcomes offer to meet the Prime Minister

Brittany Higgins has welcomed an offer from Prime Minister Scott Morrison to meet in person.

Ms Higgins went public in February with allegations she was raped inside Parliament House.

Ms Higgins claims she was sexually assaulted by a male political staffer in then-Defence Industry Minister and current Defence Minister Linda Reynolds' ministerial office in the early hours of March 23, 2019.

And while the claims have dominated politics, the Prime Minister has not yet spoken with Ms Higgins.

Brittany Higgins told 9News she was never made aware the Prime Minister was "willing to discuss my concerns about how my assault was handled".

"I welcome the opportunity to meet the Prime Minister to discuss how the workplace culture in parliament house can be improved," Ms Higgins said.

In an interview with Tracy Grimshaw and aired on A Current Affair last night, Mr Morrison said there had been an offer speak with Ms Higgins before she had aired the allegation.

"At the time, just before she departed, she was offered the opportunity to come and speak with me, with Minister Cash," Mr Morrison said.
