My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to the derisory response of APEC leaders to his plan for a European Union style Asia-Pacific Community. Can the Prime Minister confirm that this personal crusade is costing Australian taxpayers, including Ryan taxpayers, almost $50,000 a month yet rated only a single dismissive sentence in the six-page communique at the APEC summit? Prime Minister, is this the most expensive footnote in the history of Australian diplomacy?
