Senator CONROY (Victoria—Deputy Leader of the Opposition in the Senate) (14:59): Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I refer the minister to the government's decision to cut the members with dependants food allowance for ADF personnel, worth $4,900 a year, replacing it with a one-off payment of $385 a year. How is it in any way justified for the government to leave some ADF members and their families more than $4,500 worse off a year?
