I was making a general point that I thought was important. In terms of the specific question, I will ask the Treasurer whether he has anything else to add to it. But let me make the point again: Australia is what it is today in large part because of the economic and social contribution of generations of migrants to Australia. We are a better country because people from around the world have made the decision to make Australia their home, and I think we should value and recognise that. I will check with the Treasurer whether he's got anything further to add.
