I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
For
depreciation, non-cash, it was $202 million. For non-recurrent costs driven by
current projects and work delivered by
others, $205 million. For business as usual internal transfer costs from
supporting divisions, for example, network maintenance and communication operating systems, $224 million. For
employee benefits, $121 million; for energy, $26 million; for interest,
$65 million; and others, $45 million.
