Thank you for that direction, Minister. Going back to your words and your contribution on the bill, you say, on the costs in relation to building the US and the UK troops' housing, 'negotiations are proceeding under previous trilateral cost-sharing principles for the AUKUS trilateral partnership'. That's how you said this housing will be funded—under previously agreed trilateral cost-sharing principles under the broader AUKUS trilateral partnership. Is that true?
