I can only repeat what I've already said. The corporation will strategically invest in high value adding projects in priority areas. A number of these priorities have a strong regional presence, such as value-add in resources and value-add in agriculture, defence and renewables, many of which are in country Australia. It's anticipated this will drive scale and growth, creating higher-value jobs in the regions.
