My question is to the environment minister. Given the minister just said the government has not awarded any money, how does the minister explain the member for Dunkley's public statement: 'I was very happy to announce with the environment minister, Melissa Price, that the applicant would be receiving an additional $10,000 as part of the federal Liberal government's Communities Environment Program'? How does the minister explain personally appearing in a video with the member and the community group at the exact same time that Labor members were being told by the department that no information on the program was available?
