As you can see, the decision today is about areas where the Future Fund is making investments. I strongly don't believe, as you have put it, that this is politicisation of the Future Fund. What a load of rubbish! Something that was established two decades ago can never ever be changed under any circumstances—how ridiculous is that? Why have an investment mandate? Why have a statement of expectations? Why do they exist? They exist so that shareholders can update, if they choose, and provide further advice or information.
