I have visited and met with Foodbank
a number of times. I know that the Treasurer does the same. It could well be in
the Treasurer's or the member for Belmont's electorate. We work
with them regularly. Obviously, if it has requests, we will consider them. If
it comes forward with a request for us, we will consider it. But, as far as I am
aware, no request has been made by Foodbank, but if it does we will consider
it.
