Senator KIM CARR (Victoria) (14:15): My question is to Senator Ronaldson, the Minister representing the Minister for Industry. I refer to the government's repeated statements that any further funding for the auto manufacturing industry would be determined after the Productivity Commission inquiry into Australia's auto industry hands down its findings. I also refer to the Prime Minister's comments on Friday that there is not going to be any extra money for the car industry and his confirmation that there was going to be a $500 million cut from the auto industry. Given the inconsistencies between these two statements, what is the government's position?
