():  My question is to the Minister for Education. Is it appropriate that during a cost-of-living crisis, when Australian families cannot afford to pay their power and grocery bills, the Australian Research Council has approved research grants for projects including challenging the protectionist myth that Australia is an island girt by sea, investigating whether English translations of Greek tragedies have any gender bias and exploring musical approaches to advancing multispecies justice? Can the minister confirm that these projects received over $4 million of taxpayers' money?
