Mr SHORTEN (Maribyrnong—Leader of the Opposition) (15:07): My question is to the Prime Minister. It is now a matter of record that the Prime Minister offered the Brisbane based, private Great Barrier Reef Foundation almost half a billion dollars of taxpayers' money in a closed-door meeting on 9 April. Prime Minister, why weren't the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority, the Australian Institute of Marine Science or the CSIRO even invited to tender for the half-a-billion-dollar contract of taxpayer money? The SPEAKER: The Minister for the Environment and Energy. Mr Shorten interjecting— The SPEAKER: The Leader of the Opposition catcalling across the dispatch boxes is not going to occur.
