Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer to the Prime Minister's statement on 16 September 2014 that Australia's participation in the international coalition against ISIL will cost about a quarter of a billion dollars every six months. Can the minister confirm that a quarter of a billion dollars every six months is the current estimated financial cost of Australia's engagement?
