Senator CORMANN (Western Australia—Minister for Finance and Vice-President of the Executive Council) (14:11): Constantly repeating false assertions doesn't make them true. Just about everything in that question is false. The PRESIDENT: Senator Wong on a point of order? Senator Wong: We will give the government leave to explain which of those assertions are false. The PRESIDENT: That is not a point of order. Senator CORMANN: As Sport Australia made very clear at the Senate select committee hearing, the brief was dated 4 April, a week before the caretaker conventions kicked in. There is nothing unusual about communications to organise event logistics and announcement arrangements.
