My question's to the Prime Minister. In his first budget as Treasurer, the now Prime Minister cut $1.2 billion from the Aged Care Funding Instrument, which determines the level of funding paid to aged-care providers. The latest leak reported in today's media reveals that the government is considering further cuts to the Aged Care Funding Instrument of up to $5.4 billion. Can the Prime Minister rule out having had any discussions or received any documentation canvassing further changes to the Aged Care Funding Instrument?
