Given that the minister does not want to release the Morgan Stanley report, and I accept that, would the government be willing to release the final figure, not the individual figures per power station? It would be very difficult to disaggregate and identify particular generators. We would like the final figure so that this debate can be better informed. There would be no commercial-in-confidence considerations there. There would be no embarrassment to a particular power generator. It would provide great support to this debate so that a more informed decision could be made by this chamber.
