Senator Xenophon, I have a few extra comments I can make in relation to what you have asked just now and previously. We have indeed made one announcement in relation to assets that I should bring to your attention where the minister has indicated that we will publish assets for MCEETYA to consider. In terms of how we proceed with respect to information around assets, that will be considered by state and federal ministers. There is obviously a concern about how we deal with assets within the overall funding picture. That is certainly a consideration within the Gonski review process. But the government has yet to respond to this committee report that you are referring to, so I cannot pre-empt in any further detail what the government may say in response to those recommendations.
