As you would recall, Senator, the government has also announced the conditions associated with those. If you have a question of Senator Milne, that is a matter that should be addressed to her. The bill before the chamber in terms of the fixed-price period and the default caps references the bipartisan five per cent target. However, there is this architecture, which we are discussing now, which is the Climate Change Authority. I am very happy to continue talking about this. If the senator has nothing further on this point, my invitation to the chamber is that we vote on Senator Xenophon's amendment.
