Hon GRANT ROBERTSON: —one occasion, for Mr Bishop's benefit, was in the 2015 Budget Policy Statement, where the operating allowance for 2016 increased to $1.6 billion, and Bill English, a Minister that Mr Bishop might be familiar with, said: "A higher allowance in Budget 2016 means the Government can invest in public services, addressing the long-term drivers of social dysfunction to reduce long-term spending pressures." Wise words.
