Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer the minister to the current monthly ready-for-service update on the NBN Co. website which states that NBN Co. will in June alone add more than 130,000 premises of its 286,000 target. Given that 19 months of construction in SA, WA and the NT have seen no premises at all yet activated, can the minister confirm that NBN Co. is on track to finalise 45 per cent of its 30 June target in the last possible month?
