I'll be very brief. I, again, thank the shadow Assistant Treasurer but reiterate to him that the Treasurer announced, on 27 January, that a four-week consultation period would open. If, as the shadow Assistant Treasurer says, the evidence is overwhelming and compelling, then that will of course come out in that process. But we believe it's good governance and good practice to conduct that, and the outcome of that consultation will inform the next steps to be taken, if any, by the government.
