I move Greens amendment (4) on sheet 4885:

(4)    Schedule 1, item 8, page 6 (after line 22), after subsection (1), insert:

     (1A)    For the purposes of subsection (1), meaningful involvement means a relationship in which the child is not at risk of exposure to family violence, abuse or neglect.

This relates back to the issue that we were talking about earlier where the Greens are seeking to define what a meaningful relationship is—that is, for the purpose of subsection (1), meaningful involvement means a relationship in which the child is not at risk of exposure to family violence, abuse or neglect.
