I was just wondering: will the government commission a review on the impact of the cashless debit card withdrawal so we can check out the stats and what's going on? How are you running this so we can all find out what's going on, on a monthly basis—and also publish the transition plan on the department's website once again? I think you said you were going to get back on that. But, more importantly, how are you reviewing the withdrawal and when are we going to get updates on the withdrawal? Is that going to be monthly? Quarterly? And who's doing it? Surely you've got someone ready to review it; you're pulling it.
