My question is to the Minister for Communications, Senator Fifield. Since the election, the cost of the Turnbull government's second-rate NBN has blown out, first by $12 billion, then by $15 billion and now by a total of up to $26.5 billion. On each occasion, the government has asserted that cost blow-outs will be funded from private debt. Will the entire $26.5 billion NBN blow-out be funded by private debt?
