There are a couple of other quick questions I have regarding some of the recommendations and comments in the committee report. I will leave some of my other questions until I move my amendments.

You will be aware that, during the Senate inquiry, issues around Aboriginal engagement with the scheme and concerns particularly about some cultural aspects of disability in Aboriginal communities were raised. There were comments made in a report about looking at the possibility of a launch site. I understand the government does not want to have a specific launch site for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. There were some recommendations. My question goes to how you are going to better engage Aboriginal communities in the scheme, given the very substantial issues that have been raised.
