The government and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade are working through a schedule in terms of how to approach that and the resourcing implications of doing so. The government is firmly committed to providing that resourcing for DFAT to be able to undertake this work, which will, given the number of countries involved, run over the course of several years. I give a firm commitment that the government is committed to providing additional resourcing, as required, to the department to undertake that work and to get that started within the next 12 months.
