We assess on a month-by-month basis where the industry is at and what we should do. Historically those types of announcements have been held fairly close to when the need arises, and then we work it through with industry.
We were quite happy to work with the beef and pork livestock sectors to extend the APP. The HILLRP program for pork turns it into a long-term debt, as opposed to having it paid back sooner than later. On the APP side, extensions have been granted at different times, depending on what they're facing. A lot of different factors go into that. Basically it's just a deferral, and as a federal government we're happy to do that. The APP is a federal only program, and it has been well received within the industry.
We understand that agriculture at all levels is a cash-intensive business. It relies on cashflow. When they have hiccups in the market or major eruptions—like BSE, or H1N1 for pork, and so on—governments have the responsibility to be there for those people.
