Doubts have been raised about commitments made during the election campaign by former deputy prime minister Barnaby Joyce who wrote to the treasurer shortly after the election about two projects that he said were pledged under the Community Development Grants program.

The Community Development Grants program was established by the Coalition in 2013 to fund their election commitments.
