I am aware of the issue that you have raised. It is an issue that potentially affects all of the basin communities. The particular program—again, I am not particularly familiar with the circumstances in Victoria—in South Australia is probably a state-based program, as are many such programs. It may very well be that the program you are referring to is a state-based one, but I will get some more information for you and try and respond to you.
