I just want to jump in on this.

There are two documents from the estimates: supplementary estimates (B), 2009-10, “Border Infrastructure Fund relating to investments in infrastructure to reduce border congestion”, and supplementary estimates (A), 2010-11, “Funding for Border Infrastructure Fund related to projects in support of the 2010 G8 Summit”. The Auditor General has said we should have been clearer to Parliament when we presented those estimates. While this had been done for many years, she's right, it should have been, and next time it will.

See context to find out what was said next.
