That's a matter for the minister. I have said that I will raise that with her. I just do want to reiterate, though, that I have been very clear about what the direction was. I read that out last night in the Senate, and I have referred to it again today. I can repeat that for you, although I'm conscious that we should not be delaying this bill. I confirm that the direction is to amend the Telecommunications (Customer Communications for Outages) Industry Standard 2024 to mandate that telecommunications providers maintain a public register of their network outages. I have answered these questions for you a number of times. It is a priority for the government, and we will ensure that it is set up by the end of the year.
