More money for their mates.

Why so much? Spend that on dams first instead of the burden of useless bureaucrats.

Just what the country needs ,another bloody committee. For god's sake, we have a committee, it's called a Govt. Start earning your tax funded wage and do SOMETHING.

another committee OK I hope Angus Taylor and Barnaby Joyce aren't on it

he should add another $444m by recalling the 'Captain's Call' dough improperly allocated by fleeting exPM Mal the spiv

Corporate welfare?

I didn't realise coal had been rebranded agriculture, fisheries and forestry..... Learn something new every day

And I bet Angus and Barnaby are the first ones on that committee. You can’t keep them away from a bucket of money. They will be planning how to move it to the Cayman Islands as we speak.
