That is not a question—I take that as a political comment. Obviously, the government has put before the parliament, and today here before the Senate, a package of measures which we believe is central to our future economic success as a nation. We recognise the importance of small business as a key driver of economic growth into the future. This is a well-considered set of measures. Obviously, it is important to ensure that all those who are eligible to take advantage of this measure have the opportunity to be aware of it and to be aware of how it operates. That is why we are providing relevant information through various channels into the public domain. That is appropriate and it is consistent with past practice by governments of both persuasions. I will leave it there in response to that political comment.
