My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for the Environment, Senator Birmingham. I thank the minister for making available the minutes of the last three PFAS Taskforce meetings. The minutes for each of these meetings end with a list of action items which show that, in 2020, the task force's achievements consisted of developing talking points and calling further meetings. Minister, can you point to one tangible achievement of the PFAS Taskforce in 2020 towards remediation, compensation or like-for-like relocation of affected residents living outside defence bases?
