My question is to the Minister representing the Treasurer, Senator Cormann. I refer to the Treasurer's statement on 15 September 2014 that Defence will be asked to absorb 'a significant amount of costs associated with participation in the international coalition against ISIL.' Is the Treasurer correct, or will the government maintain the practice of supplementing the net additional cost of major overseas operations on a no win, no loss basis?
