My question is to the Assistant Minister for Health, Senator Nash. I refer the minister to the Prime Minister's pre-election promise that, 'No cuts to health means no cuts to mental health.' Given that one in five Australians will at some point suffer from a mental illness, can the minister guarantee to the Senate that there will be no cuts to front-line services in mental health?
