I will leave a decision about that matter to Minister Bowen. I can't pre-empt his decision or indeed the findings of the committee that you are involved in, Senator. I can say to you that, of course, we want the panel to draw on the widest possible range of information in contemplating the issues that we've asked them to think about. At the core of this is a need to ensure that we understand how the grid and the market will operate together to secure the interests of energy users and consumers as we continue through this transition. We've got a lot of policy settings in place to 2030, but the transition will continue beyond that. We understand that policy reform is required to make sure that the investment that is required continues to flow into that sector.
