My question is to the Prime Minister. Prime Minister, in a dreadful development, Cadbury is sacking 50 workers at its Claremont factory. The simple fact is that the factory would not be downsizing if the coalition government had delivered on its 2013 promise to inject $16 million of economic stimulus into the northern suburbs of Hobart through enhancements to the factory. Instead, when Cadbury didn't go ahead with the new visitor centre, the government took the money from the battlers in my electorate and used it elsewhere as a political slush fund. Prime Minister, what will you do to return that stimulus money to Denison? What will you do to help the 50 sacked workers?
