QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator McALLISTER (New South Wales—Minister for the National Disability Insurance Scheme) (15:02): Thank you, Senator Ruston. As you know, we are making a substantial investment, backed by legislation, to roll out further packages so that families can get the support that they need. People whose needs are urgent are being prioritised, and I am advised that they are being offered care much sooner.

There are longer wait times, but we are, pleasingly, expecting to see some of those come down. The PRESIDENT: Senator Ruston, second supplementary?
