Thank you, Minister. Minister, we're hearing that the Saving Native Species program faces a funding cliff. I've been hearing from on-the-ground conservation organisations that they're already letting staff go because their funding is coming to an end. Given how critical this on-the-ground work is to the government's goals when it comes to biodiversity, can the government provide these organisations with some certainty that the Saving Native Species program will continue to be funded?
