The position of the government was outlined in an opinion piece by me published in newspapers during the course of this week. She would have seen in that opinion piece that the text of the resolution is not yet available. The government will make its final decision, as was made clear in that opinion piece.

I ask the Deputy Leader of the Opposition to read it. The opinion piece represents the position of the government.
