My question is to the Minister for Sport, Senator Colbeck: The Prime Minister claims his only involvement in the rorted Community Sport Infrastructure Grants Program was to pass on 'representations made to us as every Prime Minister has always done'. But the Auditor-General last night told the Select Committee on Administration of Sports Grants he had never previously seen so much interaction between a Prime Minister's office and the minister across the entire duration of a grants program. What was the Prime Minister's true involvement in this program?
