Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer the minister to the suggested response to that complaint, which is:

State and territory authorities and block grant authorities are responsible for managing the application process as it relates to individual schools.

Given that the Rudd government has repeatedly promised to ‘end the blame game’, will this government now take responsibility for the fact that both taxpayers and school communities are not receiving value for money on projects funded under the BER?
