Thank you for that protection, Madam Acting Deputy President. The reality is that, even if we were to conduct another inquiry into this, I do not believe the opposition would be able to understand the financial aspects of this scheme or be able to work out the benefits for ordinary Australians, and in particular South Australians. This is the key factor that Senator Fisher continues to miss. The first place in South Australia where the broadband is going to start is Willunga. I am sure Senator Fisher knows where Willunga is. It is a great part of South Australia—a very beautiful area with lovely vineyards and it is close to the coast.
