I would have thought that question time on the day after the budget was exactly the forum to ask questions of this nature. Let me put it another way to the minister: is it not the case that money, including the so-called saves that I referred to before, is fungible and the only funding that is guaranteed for the NDIS will be the hypothecated levy funds? Is it not also true that the levy funds will cover less than half the required additional Commonwealth funds in the post-launch period?
