Senator, there's a wilful disregard for the very transparent answers that have been given in the other place and in this chamber. We have told you, now on more than one occasion, what the price impact that the Treasury modelling disclosed is. So we provided that information. I know you don't like it, but we've actually provided the information. He is getting all heated up on getting information that we have actually given him. He just doesn't like the answer. Now, in terms of why house prices have moved in this last quarter, I again refer you to my earlier answer, which is that there is more than one factor in the housing market which is going to affect supply. I know that it is politically convenient for you to look only at one factor.
