MS BURCH: I was making reference to the construction of the west Belconnen children and family centre and that will have a focus on supporting Indigenous communities in the area. And I have mentioned earlier today that there is a reference group that has been developed and that has government and community sector but most importantly local representation from the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community. That forum is at the pivotal point of creating and structuring the services to best meet their needs. So how is that working, Mr Seselja? It means that we are having a conversation with the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders to best meet their service needs.

Ms Gallagher: I ask that all further questions be placed on the notice paper.

Supplementary answer to question without notice

Capital works—program

MS GALLAGHER: I have just got one matter from question time. The building the education revolution is in our numbers; so that was my mistake—

Mr Seselja: So that was the 0.5 per cent of your certainty, sorry.

MS GALLAGHER: Yes, as it turns out, Mr Seselja, I made a mistake, and I am here to correct it.

Mr Seselja: And the number is?

MS GALLAGHER: I do not have the number but, yes, I will bring that back. It is about $150 million, from memory.
