election commitment to provide eight speech therapists for four years

I also welcome the money for Therapy ACT, which is part of the government's election commitment to provide eight speech therapists for four years. My only concern in this area is that over the years I have heard the previous ministers tell members of the estimates committee how difficult it is to find speech therapists. It is all very well to fund them, but we do actually need to fill those places to provide the services to people, especially children with autism spectrum disorder who are particularly in need.
