Again, I'll see if there's anything more we can provide. That $39 billion is the funding for the provision of care. As to the costs that the department perhaps incurs through its operating budget, I'll see if there is a way of separating that out. I'm not sure, because, again, it's existing budget that's being reprioritised to implementing this reform. But I'll see if there is some way that the Department of Health and Aged Care is accounting for this in a way that provides you with that info.
