Senator Siewert, I can indicate a response to some elements of your question, but you may need to be a bit more specific about the nature of the training when we get to that point. The people working within the pilot locations will receive specialist training. That training is not being rolled out across the board, as I am sure you will appreciate. However, those who will be responsible—for want of a better expression—in a centralised way for the people who move out of the area will also receive specialised training and will be dealing with the other caseworkers who have been working with the families in the pilot area as well.
