I noticed that, in starting that answer, you used the words, 'I hope that the financial markets lift'—I hope—to the trade, yet, in Australia, we had severe breaches of the law by senior banking and financial institution officials and no-one went to jail—no-one! You also said that you'd like to maintain face-to-face banking services in the Pacific islands, yet we can't get that here in Australia. Minister, is this bill just putting more money in the pockets of the big four banks by lowering their borrowing costs relative to other banks?
