My question is to the Attorney-General, Senator Cash. Today, the New South Wales ICAC has received explosive evidence from a frank and fearless public servant about the dodgy clay target grant for the 'Maguire international shooting centre of excellence'. It's reminiscent of sports rorts, 'pork and ride' and all the other times the Audit Office has repeatedly found that the government prioritised coalition and marginal seats in grant funding in the lead-up to the last election. Why is your government's model for a corruption body designed to not be able to look back at the misuse of public funds? Is it because half your cabinet have been implicated in integrity scandals?
