Senator McEWEN (South Australia—Opposition Whip in the Senate) (14:16): Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I note the Minister representing the Prime Minister was unable to defend the Prime Minister's commitment before the election. The PRESIDENT: A question, Senator McEwen? Senator McEWEN: Can either Senator Abetz or the Minister representing the Minister for Communications confirm that, as a result of these cuts to the ABC, Adelaide's ABC studios will be shut, state based 7.30 programs will be axed and up to 500 people could be sacked by Christmas?
