Text

Minister, in your previous answers you talked about the pressures and the difficulties. You said that you were looking for a fair funding model, and you spoke of the need for taxpayers here to be treated equitably. Expanding on the need for taxpayers to be treated in fairness to the level of need, is our current level-of-need estimate a fair estimate?
