The government will also make it easier for veterans to access schemes that help them to find a home after their service and get building insurance."I've met with hundreds of veterans this year and listened to their ideas on additional measures the government could take to support veterans in their communities," he said.

At the weekend, Labor promised an extra $118 million in taxpayer cover for veterans' funeral costs, art therapy programs, upgrades to local war memorials and a Kokoda Trail master plan to conserve the historic wartime trail. While in Darwin, Mr Morrison is also expected to talk about what he labels the "economic vandalism" of the NT's Labor government while offering up some answers to help the local economy grow.
