Well, let me just firstly say that our government is committed to effective action on climate change. And, indeed, we have a plan. We are on track to meet and exceed our emissions reduction targets that were agreed to in Kyoto by 2020, and we have a plan to meet our emissions reduction target agreed to in Paris by 2030. The next point is that all of the public servants across the great world-class Australian Public Service know what their duties and responsibilities are, and I would encourage all of our outstanding public servants to conduct themselves appropriately, consistent with the rules.
