My question is to the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister claimed that his Emergency Response Fund would fund immediate response activities with up to $200 million a year. But the Prime Minister spent nothing for more than two years and has only recently spent the first $17 million. With people in my electorate still living in caravans, and parts of New South Wales now flooded, why didn't the Prime Minister use the money for immediate response activities like he said he would?
