Mr President, I have a supplementary question. Minister, I also refer to comments by Mr Alan Kirkland, the CEO of consumer advocacy group CHOICE, who said:

Now more than ever, consumers need professional financial advice to help them save for their retirement, not advice distorted by hidden fees and advisers pushing products that don’t meet their needs.

Minister, now that you have already said National Seniors is incorrect, is CHOICE incorrect too? Is every other consumer group in this country also wrong, or are you wrong, Minister?
