Senator SCULLION (Northern Territory—Minister for Indigenous Affairs and Leader of The Nationals in the Senate) (14:12): This is day 3. There haven't been any cuts. We've established that. We've established there are no cuts. So the questions from the other side are becoming more and more pathetic. We now have a report of a conversation— The PRESIDENT: Order, Senator Scullion. Senator Polley, on a point of order? Senator Polley: On relevance. What I asked was: has the minister told Prime Minister Morrison that he blames him for making the cuts as Treasurer? The PRESIDENT: Senators, where a minister is clearly being directly relevant, I'm going to ask that the point of order address why an answer is not, rather than simply reading out the question. The minister is being directly relevant. Senator SCULLION: Thank you, Mr President. There is no cut. The minister did not report a cut to the Prime Minister. There was no conversation about a cut because there was no cut. In fact, there was an addition. Any conversations between the Prime Minister and the minister would have been saying, 'Isn't it great that every year there's another billion, another billion and another billion!' Let me tell you, Mr President: we should all be reminded that the additional funds are in addition to what those opposite provided. So I really don't understand why they need to continue to investigate their own complete failure in this area. The PRESIDENT: Senator Polley, a final supplementary question.
