I move:
That the committee agree to the amendments made by the House of Representatives.
In doing that, can I thank those opposite, including the shadow minister, for allowing a speedy passage of this bill. It is an important bill. Without it, as I said yesterday, one of the key government commitments from the election—the rollout of the fibre-to-the node network—would have stalled.
