My question is to the Treasurer. Treasurer, yesterday the Deputy Prime Minister refused to release the cost-benefit analysis for the relocation of the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority from Canberra to the Deputy Prime Minister's own electorate. Is it government policy not to release completed cost-benefit analyses? How much did the cost-benefit analysis cost?

It cost $272,000, and the matter is for cabinet consideration.
