I have a question for the minister. The FIRB referral process has been around for a while now around different asset classes and different countries through different trade deals. Can the minister provide any evidence to the Senate that the FIRB process and the so-called red tape or cost of these FIRB assessments have led to any disincentives for foreign investment in this country?
