My question is to Senator Birmingham, the Minister representing the Minister for Education. Before the election the government promised 'more funding for people with disability through disability loading in 2015'. Instead, the government cut the More Support for Students with Disabilities program and failed to implement the Gonski disability loading as promised. Will the minister explain to the parents and students who are in Canberra today for the 'disability day of action' why the government has cut funding that gives children the educational opportunities they deserve?
