Mr President, I have a further supplementary question. I refer the minister to revelations in the Financial Review today that NBN Co. is preparing to slash as early as next week its rollout forecast by more than half to just 140,000 premises. Does the minister have any knowledge of any reassessment of targets by NBN Co.? Has the minister received any updated advice from NBN Co. or his department since the Senate estimates advice that he keeps relying on?
