I have some questions in relation to competitive neutrality. It is an issue that was raised at the economics committee. There clearly would be some concern in respect of the government breaching its own competitive neutrality policy. It's a longstanding policy. It's been around since 1996. What due diligence have you done in relation to that? When did you do that due diligence? What is the contingency the government has in circumstances where the complaints office finds that it is a breach of the policy?
