It stands to reason, given I've taken the first two questions on notice, that I do not accept the premise of Senator Keneally's question. Senator Keneally, of course, is also aware I have written to the Senate, earlier today, providing detailed information about the process the government followed in making this decision to make a $443.3 million additional investment into the future health of the Great Barrier Reef, an investment that Senator Keneally, in a great show of bipartisanship, supported through this chamber—support for which the government is very grateful. I table this letter again for the benefit of Senator Keneally.
