The government of course consults with the AOC, the Queensland government and various other partners in the delivery of the Olympics infrastructure on a regular basis. I know from previous reports that both the Queensland government and the AOC have been very pleased that they now have a federal government in place—

that is actually prepared to deliver real funding for the Olympics infrastructure rather than the hollow promises that we had from the former coalition government.

As I say, in total the Albanese government is delivering $2.5 billion for the Brisbane Arena development and up to $935 million for the minor venues program. This is real funding, not just promises.
