This will be done on a case-by-case basis. That is what it will be done on, and it is not my job to make those commercial decisions on the floor of the parliament. No Treasurer would do that. These arrangements will be developed by the Treasury. They will be transparent, they will be public, they will be capable of public scrutiny, but I do not intend to debate them or to throw them onto the floor of the parliament or to make my commercial judgements, which must be made by the officials.
