Thank you, Senator Hanson-Young. My recollection is you raised this previously with my office and I understood they had indicated to you the status of that program. I will see if I can get further details. As you will recall, this bioremediation assistance was in addition to extant—although I cannot recall if they actually had started or not—plans by the South Australian government to put in place a bioremediation strategy in the Lower Lakes. In relation to the specific Commonwealth component, I will get the detailed information about that so I can give you a full answer on that issue.
