My question is to the Deputy Prime Minister. The front pages of Australia's newspapers reported that an infrastructure bonanza would be announced in last night's budget. So why does page 84 of Budget Paper No. 1 show a $3.3 billion cut to infrastructure investment over the next four years? Why announce a splurge but deliver a cut?
