Perhaps Senator Fifield, because he had a pre-prepared supplementary question, did not listen to the five minutes of answer that Senator Evans actually provided. Senator Evans made it absolutely clear that we will be publishing the MYEFO in November and all of this information will be publicly available. You cannot be more transparent than that: all of the revised forecasts will be made publicly available. All you will have to do is read that document. It will not be hard; it will not be complex, but that information will be provided. The fact that the supplementary question completely ignored five minutes of answer from Senator Evans is just a reflection of the fact that they continue to leave Senator Abetz in charge of their tactics.
