Senator CORMANN (Western Australia—Minister for Finance and Vice-President of the Executive Council) (14:51): What I would say to Senator Wong is that what she's just read out is 100 per cent consistent with my previous answer. I'm not aware of the specific circumstance at hand because I didn't have visibility of the specific decision-making. But what I would say to you is that, at any one point in time, there are a number of grants programs that are operating across government, and from time to time there is the opportunity for overlap. What I would also point out from an Auditor-General's report, which I will just talk about, is this: 'In one instance, ministers explicitly decided to waive the project eligibility criteria for an application they wished—' The PRESIDENT: Order, Senator Cormann. Senator Wong, on a point of order? Senator Wong: A point of order on direct relevance: if he wants to read from the Auditor-General's report, how about he reads from the one we're asking questions about? But, more importantly, I asked a specific question about what the 'slight adjustment' was. The minister has dismissed that. If he doesn't know, I ask that he take it on notice. The PRESIDENT: On the point of order, Senator Wong, I do accept the first point you raised. Another Auditor-General's report is not directly relevant to this particular question. On the second point you raised, I can't instruct the minister how to answer a question. You've made the point. The minister was being directly relevant, other than that brief observation. I call the minister to continue. Senator CORMANN: I'm just going to the hypocrisy of this line of questioning. That is why I was about to point to a previous Auditor-General's report, on the portfolio of the now Leader of the Opposition, a damning report— The PRESIDENT: Senator Wong, on a point of order? Senator Wong: Direct relevance. The PRESIDENT: I ask the minister to return to the question—and, before he started talking about the alternative report, he was being directly relevant—albeit he has only two seconds to continue his answer. Senator CORMANN: I already answered the question asked. The PRESIDENT: Senator Wong, a final supplementary question.
