No. I'm on a roll! Thank you very much, though. I'm on a roll explaining just how the measures that the government has already introduced are making a difference to power prices for everyday Australians. In January, over 458,000 Australians and 39,000 small businesses received a better deal, thanks to the pressure we put on the big energy companies to put customers first by moving them off high-priced standing offers, and we are continuing to build on these actions, as I said, with the price safety net and now this bill.
