I briefly interrupt debate on this important bill to respond to an order of the Senate under standing order 164 that requires there be laid on the table no later than 5 pm today a list of commitments made by the government during the election period to provide grants for sports and recreation facilities which are being administered by the Department of Health and Ageing and the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government showing the recipients, locations and amounts of the grants. I table a statement to the Senate dealing with these issues.
