Senator Paterson, I've been clear with you. I will seek to obtain that information. Obviously—
Well, you didn't ask Senator Watt, did you? I will seek to obtain that information, but I'd again say, Senator, that I understand that the primary focus of those opposite has been on how to gain a political advantage. I think we've all seen that. Our focus is on what we can do as a government to stand with the Jewish community and against the sort of prejudice we have seen and the sort of hate we have seen, because we know where it leads, and to ensure that we provide the appropriate legislative and financial support in the way that we have prioritised. That's been the focus of this government.
