I ask the Minister to consider a number of priorities in advance of her final preparations for the budget. First, on the issue of carer's allowance, Senator Kenneally is right. Four years ago 9,000 people were receiving the allowance. That figure is now 22,000, but the problem, according to the Carers Association and the health boards, is that 110,000 are eligible for the allowance. As Senator Kenneally rightly said, we need to abolish the means test. I encourage the Minister, who is a very fair-minded person, to make this a key policy priority for carers because she will not be able to do everything over the next four years as the budgetary situation deteriorates.
