Mr. Nicholson, there are a number of housing loans that the Australian Government administers for the military. The older form of housing loan was $25,000, as you've mentioned, called the defence services homes loans. That was a very old scheme. There wasn't an income-based test at all; it was merely when an individual had served three years of full-time continuous service. Over the years, that was replaced by another form of defence service homes loans in which the value of the loan was slightly higher. I can't quite recall the figure, but it was more than $25,000.
