I was going to pick up on that because I hoped for a figure on the cost to the carbon tax revenue we get versus what would be going through Europe. The witnesses are talking about 70% or 80%, which is a considerable amount.

Where else is that money spent? Not looking at the carbon tax increase or the ring-fencing, what kinds of initiatives and such is the carbon tax in general spent on?
