Mr SHORTEN (Maribyrnong—Leader of the Opposition) (14:49): My question is to the Prime Minister. Recently, the Prime Minister said: Our government is committed to an innovative Australia. Innovation nation. They are nice words, but can the Prime Minister confirm it is still Liberal government policy to cut $3 billion from science, innovation and research, including $300 million from university research, $107 million from co-operative research centres and more than $170 million from research training?
