I have a response to the question Senator Joyce asked yesterday. Unfortunately, he directed it to the wrong portfolio. The Treasury have advised me that the answer to his question is that the current face value of all Commonwealth government securities on issue is $107.5 billion. I thank the Treasury for providing that information to me.

I just want to clarify that. Did you say 107.5?

Yes. That is the answer they have given me.
