I thank the member for Menzies for his contribution. I am advised that these amendments will deal with those issues. In fact, the reason they allow the secretary to deal with it is that the restrictions in each state and territory are different, and so those rules can be applied that relate to the relevant jurisdiction laws. We have been advised and we do believe that this will resolve the matter.

Question agreed to.
