My question is to the Prime Minister. Does the Prime Minister recall this booklet, stamped ‘Protected by law’, produced as part of his $55 million advertising campaign? Is the Prime Minister aware from Senate estimates last night that, of the 5.9 million booklets produced by the government, only 314,638 of them have been ordered by the public and a remaining 5.6 million booklets are in storage at a cost to the Australian taxpayer of nearly $8,000 a month? Given the surplus booklets, why doesn’t the Prime Minister just send a copy of the booklet to Mrs Harris and the other 6,000 Spotlight employees? Prime Minister, wouldn’t that help Mrs Harris understand how losing $90 week really protects her?
