The minister has just corrected me, and I thank her for that. Just to put the record straight, it is the Senate that has so far agreed with the proposition we have put forward, and I would encourage the government in this place to consider embracing that very thoughtful proposition—that, if we are going to set up those systems for six months for the Family Assistance Office, it makes a lot of sense to keep utilising that investment rather than transfer the cost and compliance burden to smaller employers. Thank you.
Question agreed to.
