There's something I want to put on your radar.

We've seen the report from officials that the administration costs for AgriStability are at 24% or $70 million of the budget. I know that when we were in government, we kept it around 5% to 9%.

Is there a reason we've seen such a huge increase in the administration cost for AgriStability? Are you able to give us numbers on how that has changed over the last few years?
