Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. If the proposed dumping fee had been imposed on the 22 million cubic metres of dredge spoil already approved to be dumped in the reef World Heritage area, it would have raised more than GBRMPA's current annual budget. Can the minister advise how this dirty money for dirty deeds is anything other than an incentive for GBRMPA to approve more dumping?
