I have a question for the minister. I am really pleased that the government undertook the Dyer review, and I was very pleased to work with Professor Dyer as he undertook a series of forums right across rural and regional Australia, including in my electorate of Indi. Many people from my community who are being directly affected by the energy transition came to those forums and gave their views to Professor Dyer. I was very pleased to see the nine recommendations that came through that review, and I'm very pleased that in the budget the government recognised that this is work that needs to be done. My question to the minister would be: in regard to the Energy Infrastructure Commissioner, has the government considered placing that commission in the Net Zero Economy Authority?
