Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer to Evesham State School in Queensland, where the principal said that she was not going to spend a $250,000 grant because it would be, to use here word, silly to build a library for the one student enrolled in the school. Why does the Rudd government need schools to explain to them that it is silly to grant a school of one student $250,000 for a library instead of figuring that out for themselves?
