Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I refer to the Tasman District School in Nubeena Tasmania, which has missed out on a new science laboratory that was promised by the Rudd government. Will the minister confirm to the Senate that the reason that schools like Tasman District School are missing out is that this poorly targeted vote-buying program has suffered a cost blow-out?
