Question

Senator RUSTON: All right. We'll take that as a given then. The same with the FTB bereavement payment- do you have the number of those for this year? Ms Chatham: I don't have any data here. Senator RUSTON: Can you just grab a national figure at some stage? That would be great. It would be interesting to have a look and see if there have been any changes over the last five years in that payment. Can I have the same information for stillborn baby payment and double orphan-once again, I have no idea how you can be a double orphan.
