My question is to the Minister for Innovation, Industry, Science and Research, Senator Carr, and it relates to the Commercial Ready program that the minister has been discussing. I note that the minister has accepted that some Australians are ‘disappointed’ in the government’s action. Does the minister believe that Mr Jimmy Seervai, an award-winning inventor who is financially supported by others and who is working on solutions to Australia’s obesity epidemic, is a millionaire? Does the minister believe that he is a millionaire whose company does not need the assistance via Commercial Ready to get its important product to market?
