Senator Whish-Wilson, I think you know, because it's been the subject of some discussion in estimates and at times in here, that the government has recently refocused the arrangements that were in place under the previous government to provide subsidies for commercial CCS. Our policy settings focus on providing support only to areas of technology innovation with a particular focus—I think for obvious reason—on technologies that might support the application of CCS in hard-to-abate areas.
