Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I ask whether the minister, who ran out of time when he was answering my first question, would not mind tabling the balance of his answer if he thinks that is appropriate. My final supplementary: would the environment minister confirm that the weekend's events at Ranger demonstrate that the uranium industry poses unique and national challenges and that therefore, in the national interest, it must be regulated, assessed and monitored by the federal government and not be handed back to the states and territories in a process of deregulation or outsourcing of the environment minister's responsibilities?
