We are providing funding which is helping the diversification process—at least $100 million of that $155 million. We are also looking at what more we can do for the automotive component makers. Yesterday I spoke to Wade Noonan, the Minister for Industry and Employment in Victoria, and I will be speaking further with my South Australian counterpart about all of this. We are doing everything we can, but the process is not helped by the idea that somehow there is a political divide on this. We all want the same outcome.
