QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator McALLISTER (New South Wales—Minister for the National Disability Insurance Scheme) (14:34): Our government is committed to ensuring there are culturally safe services available across the country, including for First Nations people in north-west Tasmania. We recognise the important role No. 34 plays in the community, and we note its request for continued Commonwealth funding.

I thank Senator Tyrrell for her continual advocacy for better health outcomes across Tasmania. The Minister for Health and Ageing has been made aware of this case, as I indicated in my answer to your primary question, and he is considering options for funding.
