Minister, we understand that the government's so-called Thriving Kids program is intended for children under nine. Your government has been silent on what will happen to autistic teenagers and adults. Many autistic adults and teenagers are wondering whether they will be part of the 160,000 your government intends to kick off the scheme. What alternative supports will you fund for autistic adults and teenagers in this budget?
