The member for Wentworth’s comments are simply untrue. As the member for Wentworth knows, I rang him after he wrote an article about this issue and informed him that the department had ruled the application to be ineligible. I invited him to get the council to have a discussion with the government about ensuring that the funding for the mental health component could be delivered. That offer was made; that offer is still there.
