My question is to the Minister for Government Services. In my electorate the same record rainfall that's caused widespread flooding has also caused a massive landslide, which has cut off access to Falls Creek for at least five months, decimating the summer season economy. But those affected look at the Services Australia website and only see financial assistance for people directly affected by floods. Can the minister confirm that these people are eligible for the disaster recovery allowance, and are there plans for further support?
