My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Cormann. At the National Press Club on 29 January, the Prime Minister said about the Community Sport Infrastructure Program:

… it's important to note that the Auditor-General did not find there were any ineligible projects that were funded under this scheme—

The Auditor-General contradicted the Prime Minister in evidence to the Select Committee on Administration of Sports Grants saying, 'No, that's not what we found.'
