Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Aren't Australians with disability and their families entitled to feel short changed by a Prime Minister who talked big about a NDIS but has allocated only a fraction of the money recommended by the Productivity Commission? Isn't it true that the government's annual $8 billion debt interest bill is compromising its capacity to honour its pledge?
