Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Despite the minister’s repeated pledges to deliver fibre-to-the-node services to 98 per cent of premises across the nation, and I assume that also includes 98 per cent of Queensland, does he now accept that this is simply not viable and that wireless technologies must play a key part in the delivery of new broadband services across rural and regional Australia, particularly across rural and regional Queensland?
