I would not describe it as ‘sacking’. They might think that, but then necessarily, Senator Colbeck, their views are their views. I think it is somewhat harsh to describe the events as that. I am sure, Senator Colbeck, as you and I well know, given that we both live in Devonport—I think I could say for both of us that we would hope to see a satisfactory and rapid conclusion to the outcomes at the Mersey, better known locally as the Latrobe, hospital. With that, I thank the Senate for its support for the legislation.

Question agreed to.

Bill read a second time.
