As I mentioned earlier, we are bringing together information in a way which makes it more accessible, including providing details in the budget, MYEFO and PEFO of government spending on climate change and the extent to which this spending has contributed to debt. That is also new information. But the point remains that, under the previous government, the opposition pressured the government of the day to provide more information around Commonwealth government securities on issue. I stand by what I have said before in terms of the comprehensiveness of what we are providing.
