I thank the Leader of the
Opposition for the question. Unfortunately, I do not have a crystal ball and I do
not have an easy answer to the questions she poses; I suspect neither does any
Premier, the Prime Minister or anyone in any position
around the world. There is no clear answer to those questions. We are doing our
best to deal with the situation we find ourselves in.
