Senator McGRATH (Queensland—Assistant Minister to the Prime Minister) (15:45): I seek leave to make a short statement. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Is leave granted? Leave is granted for one minute. Senator McGRATH: Thank you, Madam Deputy President. The government is absolutely committed to delivering better outcomes for Indigenous Australians, and the Prime Minister's Closing the gap report released today included the most promising results since 2011. The report shows we have achieved solid progress across target areas, compared with a decade ago. The government does not support this motion regarding the Oxfam review of the Closing the Gap agenda, as it is false to say the Closing the Gap agenda has been abandoned. It is false to say $500 million has been cut from Indigenous affairs programs and it is misleading to use experimental data to say the gap is widening. Question agreed to.
