I thank the honourable member for some notice of this question. The National Trust received initial support for the Golden Pipeline project in 1998 when the board of the Water Corporation approved an offer of $1.3 million to the National Trust to undertake urgent health and safety work—that is, asbestos removal. An additional $6.9 million was allocated by the state government from the proceeds of the sale of AlintaGas. Since that allocation, no additional specific financial support has been provided.
