My question is to the Prime Minister: The Prime Minister has claimed that his only involvement in the corrupt sports rorts scheme was passing along information. Why then, on the day before he called the election, did the Prime Minister obtain a colour coded spreadsheet from Senator McKenzie with project sheet 'intended to approve' listed by party and electorate?

I would refer the member simply to the evidence provided today that Sport Australia advised the committee this morning that they received a brief from Senator McKenzie, dated 4 April 2019, approving the third round of the Community Sport Infrastructure Grants.
