Thank you, Senator Abetz—very droll. In terms of the appeal processes that may be available to Asset Energy, I will have to take those on notice unless I can ascertain the particularities of the status of that. I do note that estimates are next week, so I'm sure that, in terms of the status of any such appeals, authorities appearing before estimates can probably address those questions. Of course, the Prime Minister, relevant local MPs and others listened very carefully to communities as well and sought to make sure that all concerns were reflected as part of the proper decision-making process.
