It's finished now. It took something like six months to get the outcome, but that's what members do on that side of the House. Those opposite, the government, are continuously crowing about housing and how they are going to fix the housing problem, but let me just run this little ditty by you. When the results finally came out about the 90-day review, the government cut a project, the upgrade to the Mooloolah River interchange, that we funded when we were in government. This is $160 million that the former federal government promised to meet the state government on—the hopeless Labor state government—in Queensland. We offered to pay 50 per cent of the first stage. It would've been when you were Deputy Prime Minister, Member for Riverina.
