As I said in my answer to the previous question, I'm sure that everybody in this chamber who comes from a rural and regional community would be delighted to have a government entity, particularly of the size, importance and prestige of the Regional Investment Corporation, located in their community. But, for the reasons that I stated in my previous answer, the decision was made that Orange was a very suitable place for this organisation to be located. Obviously, should we be successful in enacting the establishment of this organisation, it will be up to the board to undertake the preparatory work about the location of the agency in Orange.
