Senator Brown, I have said that it was a decision of government. I have given you a series of towns and locations that were considered by the ministers as potentially being appropriate. I have advised you that the decision of government was that Orange was considered to be the most suitable. I'm not sure what further information I can provide you, apart from saying that it is entirely within the authority of the government to make the decision, and it's made it.
