I would say that the Minister for Indigenous Australians, supported by Minister McCarthy and others, has been working very hard with local communities about what is needed in Central Australia and the Alice and will continue to do so. We have made provisions for extra investments into that region. Some of that's been allocated with agreements and some of it hasn't been, because the work still needs to be done. And I understand that the project the senator refers to, as I said in my previous answer, is under consideration by the National Indigenous Australians Agency and is going through their process as any other project would.
