I move:

That the amendments be agreed to.

I am tabling this further supplementary explanatory memorandum for clarity and transparency. I believe it will assist all members and senators to have a consolidated version of the explanatory memorandum to understand the changes that both houses of the parliament have made to the Veterans' Affairs Legislation Amendment (Digital Readiness and Other Measures) Bill. A further explanatory memorandum is not required when a bill returns from the second to the first house after amendment. However, I would like the intent of both the government and the opposition amendments, which were agreed to by the Senate on Monday evening, to be reflected in a consolidated explanatory memorandum.
