We have a very clear, deep and personal commitment to listening to and engaging with First Nations communities, and we're very proud to have the members of our First Nations caucus with us. What I would say in terms of approvals—because I think this is an EPBC Act question—is that Ms Plibersek has made clear the importance of going through a process of discussion and negotiation with all parties as we look to what further reforms are required in these areas. I would also make the point—speaking in relation to your primary question—that this government has, in fact, approved some 54 renewable projects since we were elected. (Time expired)
