Thank you, Mr Speaker. My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Emergency Management and National Recovery and Resilience. The Drought Communities Small Business Support Program has helped many off-farm rural businesses in my electorate who've experienced hardship caused by drought, bushfires, hail damage and COVID. This program is doing a power of good for rural businesses right across Australia, so why is the government ending this funding at Christmas?
