My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the government’s Barbara Bennett Work Choices advertisement about young workers, which the government was forced to withdraw overnight. Will the Prime Minister inform the parliament how much the production and broadcast of this advertisement has cost Australian taxpayers? Prime Minister, how can the government spend $37 million of taxpayers’ money on IR ads when many working families are struggling to make ends meet?
