Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I am just wondering whether former Premier Bracks was sorting the wheat from the chaff when he opposed the minister’s preselection. Why did the minister overrule his department’s advice to appoint the respected Productivity Commission to undertake this inquiry? Was it in fact demanded by the ACTU as part of its election funding payback?
