I will take advice on this issue. If this question relates, through you Mr President to Senator Colbeck, to Caring for our Country decisions—decisions made under that program by Ministers Garrett and Burke—there are occasions in which money is reallocated on advice in order to obtain the best environmental outcome for the funds which are expended. I am sure those issues would have been at the forefront of the minister’s mind if that were, in fact, the decision made. As I have previously said, I will obtain advice and inform the Senate of the same. (Time expired)
