Thanks, and I appreciate that you've given an undertaking to provide that information, Minister. On the issue of the funding that this will generate, the Business Council of Australia, ACCI and most of the witnesses at the inquiry were very sceptical about the capacity for this fund to deliver sufficient funding. When questions were asked by me at the inquiry, I was told that what was guaranteed was the method of funding but not the quantum. Is that still the situation?
