Senate debates Questions without Notice
Community Sport Infrastructure Grant Program

My question is to the minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Cormann. Sport Australia has given evidence to the Senate that it received the backdated brief from the government approving the Community Sport Infrastructure program projects for funding at 8.46 am on the day the election was called. Given the House was dissolved at 8.30 am that day, can the minister explain why the Prime Minister breached caretaker conventions by spending $40 million on the community grant infrastructure program the day he called the election?
