Thank you, Mr President. The answer is no. And I again take the opportunity to point out that those opposite simply have nothing for regional Australia. They have had two days to come in here and ask me any number of questions about my portfolio areas. They could have asked me about mobile phone blackspot delivery. They could have asked me about the NBN. They could have asked me about the Building Better Regions Fund. They could have asked me about the new community investment stream that is going to be delivering brilliantly for communities out across the regions. They could have asked me about the $500 million the coalition is going to deliver for regional projects. They could have asked me about the effects test. They could have asked me about strengthening competition laws. They could have asked me about country-of-origin labelling. But they asked me about none of those things, because they have no plan for regional Australia and nothing to offer regional people.
