It was a failed program. The Coalition did not put a cent in the budget past 30 June for support for it.

We, on this side, will work with communities to make sure they have the choice and that those communities receive the funding that is required to keep going a range of important social and community supports, which were set to be cut by you lot—yet another one of these terminating measures where there was nothing in the budget to deal with these substantial support programs. We are fixing all of that and delivering on our election commitment to abolish the cashless debit card.

You were on the wrong side of history last night.
