Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer to comments by the Minister for Communications, Mr Turnbull, who said on Q&A last night that funding for the national broadcaster would be cut, and 'it will average over five years about five per cent off the top'. Will the minister confirm that the Prime Minister's promise of no cuts to the ABC has been broken and tell us how much the cut will be in dollar terms each year over the five-year period?
