The member for Scullin is very cheekily trying to get my attention.

I thank the Speaker and I indicate to the Leader of the House that I will be very, very short. Can I thank the executive government for bringing forward this bill. I think it is very important. On this occasion I find myself in agreement with the member for Mackellar—I will go and have myself reassessed! I think the principles involved are very important and I congratulate all those who were involved in rectifying this oversight.
