I think that was, dare I say it, a somewhat political question. Surprise, surprise for question time! I again make a couple of points.

Perhaps they should also tell Mr Hockey that using an accounting firm that was found to have acted unprofessionally is not a prudent economic decision, and perhaps they should remind themselves that using a catering company to do their costings is also not a prudent economic decision.
