I would like to follow up on an issue where you indicated to Senator Brown that there will be no big corporate interests facilitated by this bill. When I asked specifically about mining, you talked about hairdressing establishments. I specifically asked about that, and you said that this legislation will not in any way inhibit private sector development. I would like to know whether any of the privatised land that will be used for infrastructure development can in any way be accessed through partnerships or anything else by the mining industry or by any mining company.
