Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I draw the minister's attention to the Welcome Centre in Adelaide, an organisation that teaches English to new migrants and is facing a cut as a result of the government's decision. Is the minister aware that this service is now at risk due to the coalition's funding cuts? Is teaching English to migrants no longer a policy priority for the Abbott government?
