Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Does the government acknowledge that the case of Colin and Erica Thomsen from Queensland, whose home insulation business of two decades was destroyed by the HI PIP program, costing them their home, their business and their assets, shows how inadequate the industry payment scheme is, because they cannot put in a claim by virtue of being liquidated and deregistered, and they simply do not have the money to put in a reregistration, given the thousands of dollars it costs.
