Thank you to Senator Hanson for the supplementary. I would say first what I said in my first answer, which is that an inheritance tax is not part of the government's agenda. In relation to the Productivity Commission, obviously that is an independent body. We respect its independence, and we respect its contribution to the national discussion about economic issues as an independent body, obviously. Governments of the day won't always take the advice of the PC in its entirety, and that was the case under the previous government too.
