I thank Senator Wong. Senator Wong clearly was part of a government that did not ever engage in genuine consultation. She is asking me questions about something that we actually have not got to yet. As we say very clearly in the letter—and Senator Wong has quoted this—'The government will shortly commence a process for developing an implementation approach involving full public consultation. We consider this process important and necessary to ensure that technical issues can be addressed.' So the sorts of details that Senator Wong is asking me about are details that will be dealt with and addressed through the process that is outlined in the letter that I tabled earlier.
