ES () (): We might keep moving on. Can I just point out that I did ask for specific businesses rather than sectors or industry groups or associations or anyone representing manufacturing, mining et cetera—any specific businesses. Perhaps you can come back to us if there are any specific businesses that have suggested they will struggle to meet whatever is the imposed figure for them to reduce emissions by.

Senator Duniam asked some questions this morning around modelling that had been conducted and commissioned. I noted that you said that Treasury had done no modelling of the economy-wide impact of this policy. Who did what modelling on what, where? So, if Treasury didn't do it on industry-wide or economy-wide—without giving us the modelling, what modelling has been done and by whom?
