I ask a supplementary question, Mr President. Minister, will you confirm that there were no actual sightings whatsoever of the orange-bellied parrot at the Bald Hills wind farm site? Given that the existing wind farms located on the north-west coast of Tasmania are centred directly in the flight path of the orange-bellied parrot and their breeding grounds, will the minister categorically rule out the shutting down of these facilities?
