Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. It is true that the government has much to apologise for when it comes to its approach to science—but no science minister. I note that the department registered only one 2014 National Science Week grant, totalling $4,400, for a children's science project—and that has been provided to date. Where is the remaining $495,600 in grants and why is the government delaying its announcement?
