I don't think, Senator Thorpe, you would expect me to have the details of a tender process in a portfolio that I'm not the minister for. It is customary for feedback to be provided to applicants as to why they're unsuccessful. I'm happy to take on notice what I can provide about why those particular groups were unsuccessful, if in fact they did apply. I don't know whether they did or not.

As I've said to you, there are a very large number of organisations that have been funded, as a result of this government, in a way that hasn't been done before under previous governments. That's a good thing. These organisations are delivering important services to people who deserve that support, and that's exactly what our government will do going forward.
