I was updating the House on the summer response strategy, which has been ensuring that people in the Goldfields region are able to get back home to country, and this also includes the wraparound supports that these people need.

The coalition continues to try and draw a desperate link to anything to do with the cashless debit card, and we heard it in the chamber today with the member for Riverina somehow suggesting that income support has been abolished in the Northern Territory. This is simply not the case.

But, while those opposite continue to deliver misinformation and confusion around the country, our government will continue to do the things that work, to provide the support that works, that helps people within communities.
