Senator Ronaldson is seeking to draw from one source. As the document I have quoted from says, there is a range of sources. I am prepared to back the information in the business plan against Senator Ronaldson’s posturing, because at the end of the day what those opposite are about is opposing and wrecking the National Broadband Network. They had 11½ years to try to do something about broadband and the declining fortunes of this country when they were in government, and they failed miserably. They are up to their 20th broadband plan, and the good news is that it is three dot points—after nearly 15 years on broadband, they have a policy of three dot points. (Time expired)
