Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. My question is again on marine reserves and follows up on Senator Boswell's question, which the minister has mentioned again. Could the minister identify where in the budget an allowance has been made for the $100 million compensation that has been spoken about? How will it impact upon the forecast budget surplus? Also, how will this $100 million be divided between commercial fishers, associated industries, communities and individuals?
