The minister, I am sure, knows very well why I am asking these questions. There are many people who have been very careful about controlling the types of businesses that operate in their communities. I know there are issues around negotiation but, as far as the Greens are concerned, there is unequal capacity to negotiate in respect of traditional owners having an ongoing say in the areas we are talking about. I want to be very clear about whether, under these provisions, the government will allow other businesses onto the leases that the communities now control. That is what I want to know. If I am wrong, I will be really happy to be told that I am wrong, but I want to clarify it.
