My question is to the Treasurer. On 31 July 2018 the State Revenue Office applied to the Supreme Court for Steelvision to be wound up for failing to pay $135 173 in payroll tax. Yet the very next day then Minister Carroll approved a Latrobe Valley Authority grant of $400 000 to Steelvision. Why did the government hand out $400 000 of taxpayers money to a business that another arm of government was trying to wind up for failing to pay payroll tax? The SPEAKER: I am going to call the Treasurer, and just a general reminder for the Treasurer not to stray in areas that might be before a court. I do not know about the court case that you are referring to.
