My question is to the Prime Minister. I again refer to the Prime Minister’s statement in the parliament last Thursday that neither he nor the government had decided on any taxpayer funded advertising campaign relating to climate change. Prime Minister, if the government had not decided on any climate change campaign last Thursday, can the Prime Minister confirm whether these non-existent government advertisements were in production in the first part of last week?

I direct the Leader of the Opposition to exactly what I said last Wednesday or Thursday, and I stand by it.
