My question is directed to the Treasurer. Can the Treasurer confirm that the Department of the Environment and Water Resources and the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry were advised of the intention to spend $10 billion on the National Water Plan on 8 January—10 days before the Treasury was advised of the proposal and 12 days before the Department of Finance and Administration was informed?
