To those opposite who, rather than getting on board and demanding that the government provides ongoing funding, sit there and interrupt, I say: we will see the federal budget in a few weeks. We demand to see ongoing funding for the Australian Breastfeeding Association. This is not about Liberal, it is not about Labor, it is not about progressive or conservative—this is about mothers and babies and the health of Australians going forward. It would be shameful to end this funding and continue the uncertainty.
