Thank you very much, Mr President. What the Australian people support is this government fixing the budget mess of the previous Labor government. What the Australian people support, which they showed at the last election, was this government being the government able to fix the economic mess that was left to us by the previous Labor government. There have been some tough decisions. It is this government that is, indeed, going to spend $500 million more on Indigenous health over the forward estimates than was spent by the previous Labor government between 2009-2010 and 2012-2013. If you are asking the question about who has the commitment to Indigenous health, it is this coalition government.
