My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Brandis. On Monday the Treasurer said:

The balance of the savings achieved through that bill will be provided and debited into the NDIS special account. The NDIS's account will be poorer for it, if this bill is not passed.

Did the Treasurer discuss his intention to tie savings from the omnibus bill to the NDIS with the Prime Minister or his office before that announcement was made?
