My question is to Attorney-General Senator Brandis. Can the minister confirm that the new National Partnership agreement includes immediate funding cuts in some jurisdictions and a 30 per cent cut to CLC funding nationally from 2017-18? How many vulnerable Australians will be denied access to legal services as a result of these cuts?
