I am very happy to answer the question. What I might point out to Senator Singh is that under the Gillard government's Labor-Greens carbon tax Queensland Nickel was given $11.6 million in 2013-14, and I might just say—
An opposition senator: He was not the member for Fairfax then.
So, once you are a member of parliament, all of a sudden, everything changes. So, the Labor Party and the Greens can provide $11.6 million to Queensland Nickel.
