Let us get back to your financial needs. Let us assume that in an ideal world, Mr. Abbott or his Minister were to come to you with a blank cheque telling you that you will receive what you need on an annual basis, that the museum will be entirely funded by the federal government and that this amount would cover annual operating costs and capital investments. How much money would you ask for? Would 4 to $5 million per year be enough?
