I do want to indicate to members of this place that we will be supporting these amendments. I think that it will allow the regions to be highlighted for them to have to take into account geographical location. I also would like to say that I appreciate that the member for Indi has moved these amendments, and it is a shame that some of them haven't come from some of the people that purport to support regional Australia. But, as a party that does, on our side of the House we do want to support these amendments.
