I was going to get there but I did not quite get there, Senator Bartlett. I am not aware that there is any active consideration of the taxation arrangements canvassed in the Productivity Commission report, so I think the answer is no, but I will seek further advice and if anything is happening in terms of reviewing those recommendations I will get back to you. But my sense of it is that that is not part of any active policy consideration and we are focused on the measures I have outlined. If more measures are required, more action is required from the federal government, we will be tackling it to try and ensure that Australians have an opportunity to own their own home.
