As people are aware, we have invested heavily in greater support for people with disability in terms of pensions et cetera. On the specific question the senator asks, I do know that an additional $10 million has been provided for new projects to identify practical ways to prepare the sector, the workforce and people with disability to examine how the design elements of the scheme will work in practice. As to her question about particular funding, I think there is access to that funding for new projects to directly engage with people with disability, but, as to the specifics of the question, I do not have a briefing on that. I will get her a comprehensive answer on the theme of all of her questions, which goes to how we are supporting the people with disabilities themselves to engage in the process.
