I can indicate that the whole-of-government response to these matters is being dealt with through ARPANSA. I have not directed any agency not to comment on these matters. I am advised that ARPANSA has been acting as a regulator and has been providing technical advice to the government, and it has not sought to make running commentary to the media. It has been working through an interdepartmental committee which has been advising the government.
