My question is to the minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Abetz, and I refer to the government's budget measure of removing double dipping from parental leave pay. Does the minister agree with Navy Lieutenant Commander Sandra Croft who said:

To be told I am a double dipper and I'm rorting is a slap in the face to me and all public servants, nurses, teachers, firefighters and the average public servant on a normal wage.
