Yes, seriously. Yesterday, the minister dismissed the Commonwealth's involvement in the projects in Queensland contracted to Newlands Civil Construction. I refer to the National Partnership Agreement on Land Transport Infrastructure Projects, an agreement between the Commonwealth and the states. Can the minister confirm that the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing project, under which Newlands Civil Construction has been contracted to deliver at least $2.5 million in works, is included in the agreement and is 80 per cent funded by the Commonwealth?
