Senator FIFIELD (Victoria—Manager of Government Business in the Senate and Assistant Minister for Social Services) (14:16): If there is to be a finger pointed at anyone over the failure of the dementia and severe behaviours supplement it should be pointed at those opposite, for their flawed design and budget blow-out. Let me quote Mr Ian Yates, chief executive of COTA: COTA Australia agrees with Stephen Judd that termination of the supplement was inevitable. Many providers were receiving very substantial extra funds without validation and with no guarantee of better outcomes for people with severe dementia symptoms. Senator Moore: My point of order is with respect to direct relevance. The particular question was about the time we have to wait for the minister's new policy. It was not asking for new information from other third-party people. The PRESIDENT: I draw the minister's attention to the question that was asked. Senator FIFIELD: I make it clear that the policy and design of the former government is gone. It is not coming back. We are going to work cooperatively with the sector to see if we can come up with something that is better targeted and better focused than those opposite came forward with.
