Kevin Rudd (Griffith, Australian Labor Party, Prime Minister) Share this | Hansard source

I thank the honourable member for his question. Could I say to the honourable member in response to his question that he should look carefully at what the Minister for Energy Efficiency has said recently about the question and the challenge of fraud both in relation to this program and others. I say to the honourable member that if he has particular information relevant to any allegation of fraud concerning this program, he has a responsibility to make that information available directly to the minister so that appropriate action can be taken by the relevant law enforcement authorities. I would say the same to all other members of this place because, when it comes to any fraudulent treatment of taxpayer money, we want to make sure that the law enforcement agencies have all that information available to them so that appropriate action can be taken.
