My supplementary question arising out of the minister's non-answer is: is the minister standing by the statement he made yesterday that these fraudulent activities commenced some years prior to McMillan Shakespeare's acquisition of RemServ in 2004?</text>

I think the important issue out of this is that Maxxia has very good processes in place that will make sure that every financial transaction and everything that goes on with salary sacrificing will be transparent, and any hint of any fraud will be picked up through their compliance measures.</text>
