As I have indicated, we have been delivering real results, because one of the fundamentals that has changed is that this is based on a proper partnership. So, a community not only creates the activities but also works out exactly who is doing what in the program, so the community is right at the centre of this program, and it is all about doing things. I heard the Prime Minister again say something in the other place—and I know it is across politics—that we know that part of the solution to these challenges is doing things with Indigenous Australians rather than to them. Identifying the activities is certainly very important. I know that Senator Williams will know the commercial nurseries that are working so well in Cobar and the furniture-making places in Goodooga. These are examples of how we are not only moving people into work but moving people into enterprises. It is just so easy to move from an enterprise into a real job.
