I am very proud to be associated with a government that has a Prime Minister who is 'the Prime Minister for Aboriginal and Islander people'. I do not, however, accept the premise of the question. There will be no impact on front-line services—we have said that. It is simply inaccurate to say there have been cuts of $530 million. As I have said, as I will continue to say and as I will continue to ensure is the case, there is no impact on front-line services. In regard to the details, I said I would take them on notice.
