Thank you. Obviously, it would be inappropriate for me to comment directly on any discussions in cabinet or the Expenditure Review Committee of cabinet, but I took it that it would be self-evident that the ERC is a constituent part of government.

Let me again say that the government is not looking for ways and means of slowing down the negotiations or discussions or rollout of the NDIS. What we want to do is to make sure that the NDIS is the very best that it can be. That is what I am working on, and that is what my state and territory counterparts are working on.
