There is certainly really good stuff happening. I do not think anybody would dispute it but how do we as a committee know that housing is on track? It is the mandate of this committee and its responsibility to bring in Ministers more so than officials. That is the accountability piece in the Climate Action and Low Carbon Development (Amendment) Act 2021. We need to hear that the line Minister is on top of it and that it is on track. That will feed into the discussion for the revision of the climate action plan in the following year. Is that fair Senator O'Reilly?
