Thank you very much for that, Senator Ludwig. Extensive consultation has been undertaken in the broader context of the AMLCTF Bill, which has ensured that industry has been able to raise its concerns and consult with the government on them. As a result of these discussions, amendments were made to the FTR Act. As a result of the Senate committee inquiry and consultation with industry, we have developed amendments which we consider to be worthwhile.
