I am not able to validate whether your assertion is correct at this moment nor am I able to provide you with how much we spent on Indigenous affairs last year. It is a comprehensive question and I will have to take it on notice. I would also like to take the opportunity to correct a submission I made in reference to an earlier question. I want to clarify that the CDEP transition payment will continue until 30 June 2008, not, as I incorrectly stated, for 12 months.
Bills agreed to.
Bills reported without amendment; report adopted.
