National Partnership Agreement on Remote Indigenous Housing

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (15:27): Supplementary arising from the answer: what communities has the minister visited to explain her government's inaction?

The PRESIDENT: I will take the first part of the question.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: What remote Aboriginal communities has the minister visited to explain the status of negotiations?

The PRESIDENT: Thank you, Leader of the Opposition.

The Hon. S.G. Wade: It's not a supplementary. It's a restatement.

The PRESIDENT: No, it's an acceptable question. Minister.

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (15:27): I haven't had the opportunity to visit any remote communities yet. I am hoping to be able to do that as minister, but we have had a very ambitious 100-day plan as a new government with all of us new ministers, apart from the Treasurer. We had a very ambitious 100-day plan with a lot of changes to be made prior to the end of the financial year. I am very pleased that we have been able to fulfil all of those promises and I am hoping to get out and about and visit a whole range of communities.
