My question is to the Prime Minister, and it follows my question yesterday about the $50 million Metropolitan Broadband Connect program. I refer the Prime Minister to his written answer provided to my office during question time which indicated that of the $4.1 million expended from the $50 million program—that is, less than 10 per cent of the program had been expended—$1.3 million was spent on administration and confirmed that the program has now ended and the money transferred. Doesn’t this failure to implement this promise from the government reflect the government’s complacent, backward-looking failure when it comes to actually delivering high-speed broadband?
