You have never inquired? There has been speculation that these agreements cover some national parks and that, during the process of negotiation of the agreements, some covered agreements reached over native title. You have never inquired as to the nature of these agreements—for example, what mining areas or other areas do they cover? You keep telling us that there are areas in these agreements that are at risk and that there are important things that are at stake here, yet you have never inquired as to the nature of those agreements or asked for the list.
