National Partnership Agreement on Remote Indigenous Housing

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:32): Supplementary: would it surprise the minister to learn that the nature of that agreement, which she seems not to know about, is a one-off payment of $37.5 million when the last payment was $289 million and, if she is aware that that is the case, who is going to make up that shortfall of nearly $250 million?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:32): We will be announcing the nature of the total package in the future.

The PRESIDENT: Leader of the Opposition, the last supplementary was really pushing the envelope so keep it tight.
