My question is to the Minister for Innovation, Industry, Science and Research, Senator Carr. I refer to the minister’s previous answers and the Rudd government’s decision to axe the vital Commercial Ready program. Will the minister now consider funding the 71 grant applications which were before his department between 28 April, when the government secretly closed Commercial Ready, and budget night, 13 May, when the closure was announced?
