Mr. Mark Griffin:
We can explain the operation, the mechanics and the basis on which a gap funded model was chosen over a concession agreement. We have reviewed it on a number of occasions during the process, and the view was still that gap funded was the most appropriate model in these circumstances. We can come back at a later stage and do a little bit of a deeper dive, so to speak, on the rationale for that with the committee.
