I will confirm this, Senator, but I think, having looked at this after the story broke, that that is not an entity the Australian government funds. The funding that we provide is through the UN Relief and Works Agency. I think that's UNRWA—sorry, I'm quite tired. The entity that you describe is funded by private donation. That is my recollection. If I'm incorrect, I will come back to this chamber and clarify that with you.
