My question is for the Minister representing the Attorney-General. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander legal services funding is still stretched to breaking point. There are just 15 months to go until the current funding agreement expires. First Nations legal staff advised the government about needing $229 million in emergency funding to address staff recruitment, retention and urgent capital works. Will the government deliver this funding in the May budget?
