During the period of Senate estimates, the week before last, there was speculation in the media that the Pine Gap agreement had come up for review, and a United States consular official indicated to an ABC journalist that that was in fact the case and negotiations were underway. Senior defence officials in estimates hearings then indicated that that was not the case. I am just wondering whether you would be able to clarify that matter for us now.
