Okay. That's perfect.

This question is for whoever wants to answer it. In relation to the EORN project and similar projects, there seems to be some confusion about the various funding streams. Local officials in my area are concerned about getting the funding for the EORN project.

I know there is a rapid funding stream for a maximum of $150 million, I think. The buy-in that EORN needs for the EORN project is $200 million. Can I get some feedback on how we can make the project happen? I know that various people have been aware of this. The minister has been aware of this for many years. How can we make this project work?
