My question is to the Prime Minister. Following eight weeks of floods and damaging seas in my mid-North Coast communities—the third summer floods in just three years—and with our community now dealing for the third time with incredibly frustrating category A to D natural disaster paperwork and all the oddities of the emergency management triggers for specific disaster relief payment, will you now urgently agree to work with state and local governments to overhaul what is a dog's breakfast of relief and recovery processes in Australia?
