I've been having a little squizz at your written submission to the Senate Select Committee on Administration of Sports Grants
Mind if I ask you a few questions?

It may seem slightly trivial but it's a highly unusual thing to do when signing a legal document. Official docs are to be signed in blue or black ink

You state in your submission govt Expenditure Review Committee approved funding for Community Sport Infrastructure Grants of $29.7 million
$29.3 million was allocated to Round 1 of CSIG
What happened to the remaining $400K?

You state in your submission that "Accordingly, I wrote to the Prime Minister seeking additional funding rounds...."
Why did you write to the Prime Minister when the Expenditure Review Committee was responsible for any additional funding?

You state in your submission "I wanted the spread of grants to be geographically broad"
&
At 21.
"I requested a report detailing proportional data on the number of projects and funding amount by state and electorate"

Most seats in Australia have roughly the same population & elected voters (usually around 100K)
Rural seat of Dawson got $2,004,632
Urban seat of Rankin got $16,400
Do you that's fair & unbiased?

You, on many occasions have articulated your pride in the fact you used your Ministerial discretion to ensure a geographical spread, which is fine.
Favouring rural areas is not.

The reasons for this would be
a) you have an affection for rural areas bcuz you grew up there
b) Re-election chances as a National

They say you signed up as a 'full fee paying member' and that it was your SECOND recent visit. No mention of an 'honorary' membership was made by WCTC
Did you visit WCTC twice prior to approving Round 2?
