My question is to the Prime Minister. Can the Prime Minister confirm that not a single dollar of the government's $4 billion Emergency Response Fund has been spent? Can he confirm that this is a fund that has an annual allocation for both recovery and mitigation, and the figures there are zero and zero that have been spent? When Australians have suffered record fires and floods, how is it possible that not a dollar has been spent from this fund?
