If you hang around for a while you will get the opportunity to ask him, because strictly speaking they are his responsibility, but I will answer the member’s question. It was a little convoluted and confused but, as I understand it, the thrust of the question is that the government when in opposition raised expectations amongst consumers that certain things would happen and that these things have failed to happen and therefore that has been a factor in the surveys that he refers to. My answer to that suggestion is: no, I do not believe that is the case.
