Mr BURKE (Watson—Manager of Opposition Business) (14:30): My question is to the environment minister. Senate estimates has revealed that the member for Dunkley announced tens of thousands of dollars' worth of grants in his seat under the Communities Environment Program, before the applications had even opened. Can the minister explain how it was appropriate for a government member to be giving away tens of thousands of dollars of taxpayers' money when applications hadn't opened, guidelines had not been published, and the department was completely unaware?
