Thank you very much and to the member for Sturt: I think the member for Holt gave a very elegant answer to the parliament. In addition to that very elegant answer, let me remind the member for Sturt that, as I said in this parliament yesterday, the review tabled by the member for Holt related to the 2010-11 budgets of the Australian intelligence community. The information that I have given the parliament yesterday and today is the most recent budget information. Indeed, the Leader of the Opposition, in his supplementary question, conceded that these are the facts; he conceded that I was giving the parliament facts. And the facts are as follows, that in the 2013-14 budget from 1 July there is a 10 per cent increase in funding for ASIO.
