My question is to the Prime Minister. Harper is five years old. He has been diagnosed with Batten disease. Batten disease is a degenerative neurological condition that gives children living with it an average life expectancy, from diagnosis, of seven to 10 years. Harper had been funded for 24/7 home care under the NDIS, but in May Harper's funding was cut by more than half, to only allow for three overnight care visits a week. Why is this, Prime Minister?
