My question is to the minister representing the Minister for Senior Australians and Aged Care, Senator Scullion. Page 101 of Budget Paper No. 2 in the 2016-17 budget states that:

The government will achieve efficiencies of $1.2 billion over four years through changes to the … Aged Care Funding Instrument.

If an efficiency saving of $1.2 billion over four years is not a cut, what is it?
