Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Those health organisations are at the moment on 12-month temporary contracts. They do not know the future certainty of their funding. I ask the government: are they prepared to commit to long-term funding and contracts for Aboriginal health organisations, because we know that to close the gap we need long-term service provision?
