Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer to the Partners in Recovery program which provides coordinated clinical support to people with severely disabling persistent mental illness, including in regional areas. I also refer to her answer last Thursday where she refused to rule out any cuts to funding this important service. Given the minister has now had a week to read her briefing pack, will she now rule out any cuts to Partners in Recovery in order to provide certainty to the individuals and their families who rely on the program?
