My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Evans. Can the minister explain why, when the Prime Minister announced her ministry on 11 September, there was no member of the executive given specific responsibility for disabilities and carers? Why, when the Prime Minister was asked, was she unable to say who had responsibility? Why did it take several days for the Prime Minister to belatedly announce that Senator McLucas would have that responsibility?
