My question is to the Minister for Veterans' Affairs. Shane is 64, has served in the Australian Army for 21 years and lives with multiple injuries. Shane will hit the proposed $5,000 limit for veterans' allied health services in less than four months. Many veterans have said to me they will need to choose between physical and psychological health support—or be retraumatised trying to seek extra support above the cap. Will the government do the right thing by veterans and raise or reverse the proposed cap?
