The only thing missing from the honourable members list was the name of the candidate that secured those commitments, Georgina Downer. It was her. She secured those commitments. I can assure the honourable member that those commitments secured by her opponent, the Liberal candidate, Georgina Downer, will be delivered, but there'll be another election in Mayo before not too long, and the honourable member will then have the opportunity to not simply thank the government for the delivery of the commitments that she has described but also consider how she is going with the $700 million of promises she made in the course of the by-election. The reality is that the government made the commitments, Georgina Downer secured them and the government will deliver them.
