We attempted yesterday to get some information relating to the impact on specific facilities. I don't accept that the government, who is foisting this upon the Australian community and economy, can sit here and say that they will not talk about specific facilities, because the impact is important. I want to turn to V/Line, which is a public transport provider in Victoria. I understand it's a captured facility, which, of course, will be required to reduce its emissions by 4.9 per cent. How much will it cost for V/Line to meet the government's emissions target? Has any work been done—any consultation, any communication? I'd be grateful to know.
