As I said earlier, Senator Henderson, the government has already made a public commitment to fund the wage rises plus the 20 per cent contribution to eligible on-costs. We will be updating providers as soon as possible with more details around the formulas. What I can say, and we've said this previously, is that it will be taking into account things like the cost of labour and CCS hours at a particular service. I met as recently as this afternoon with representatives of the sector, who didn't raise concerns about this with me, so you're obviously hearing from different providers about this. But, as soon as we're in a position to provide more information, we will do so.
