Mr President, my question without notice is to the Minister representing the Minister for Industry. Under the previous government, almost 200 Australian textile manufacturers were awarded a total of $45 million through the Building Innovative Capability scheme. Why is the government now abolishing this innovation program, threatening the future of these manufacturers and the 40,000 people they employ?
