Thank you for that support for my answer. I said to you quite honestly, Senator Rennick, that I don't have the specific details to answer that question, but I will get them for you. But I'm making the general point that the need to move to net zero is not in dispute. This country is uniquely placed not only to move to net zero for our own economy but to assist the rest of the world to do so.

One of the areas that I'm very directly involved in is the issue of critical minerals. Australia is very fortunate in that we have an overabundance of those critical minerals that we're going to need to move to net zero. (Time expired)
