I have a supplementary question, Mr President. My particular concerns are expressed as health, Indigenous affairs, disability services and housing affordability, so let us start there. Secondly, why does the federal government not require the states and territories to provide up-to-date information to the COAG Reform Council in just, for example, these four areas? Is this not just another example of failed so-called ‘cooperative federalism’?
