Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Is the minister aware that federal Labor abolished the coalition’s Investing in Our Schools Program? Secondly, is the minister aware of a statement made by Premier David Bartlett today on ABC radio in Tasmania where he said:

We have projects in housing and in schools that are ready to roll, ready and waiting for this sort of injection.

Hasn’t the Tasmanian Premier, Mr Bartlett, today confirmed that infrastructure funds merely replace already planned state government spending with borrowed federal debt?
