Again, there are a range of propositions in those questions from the senator which really echo the same political points he was seeking to make in the estimates hearings. I again refer him to the evidence that was given by the bureau and to the fact, as I have said again on this occasion, that the Prime Minister has indicated that the bureau will continue to provide the meteorological services that it has in the past and this includes the continuation of all bureau offices in regional areas. The operational plan of the Bureau of Meteorology is consistent with those commitments.
