Thank you, Mr Speaker. My question's to the Prime Minister. In the last financial year, this government spent more than $600 million of taxpayer money on travel. Can the Prime Minister confirm that Minister Cormann abolished the government travel panel and made it compulsory for all government travel to be booked through Helloworld companies, moved a senior public servant because Helloworld thought he was driving too hard a bargain and received thousands of dollars worth of free flights from Helloworld? Why hasn't the Prime Minister recalled Ambassador Hockey and sacked Minister Cormann?
