I thank the member for her question and the Prime Minister for the opportunity to add some further information in relation to the support that the government provides for Foodbank—some $750,000 a year in funding over a 4½-year period. That of course is not the only food relief program that the Commonwealth government, the Morrison government, supports. We also provide funding for two other significant charities in this area: SecondBite and OzHarvest. These are all important measures designed to provide support to needy Australians, vulnerable Australians. And of course we continue to work with these important agencies for the delivery of this funding and continue to work with them and a whole range of other agencies to support Australians affected by drought.
