My question is to the Deputy Prime Minister, the Minister for Employment, Workplace Relations, Education and Social Inclusion. I refer the minister to today’s revelation that Building the Education Revolution will spend $2½ million demolishing four functioning classrooms at Abbotsford primary to replace them with four classrooms, in direct contravention of the wishes of the school community. Can the minister explain to the House how any cost-benefit analysis could justify such waste and reckless spending?
