Family First supports this merit selection of appointments amendment, and I think we have supported quite a few in the past from Senator Murray. It is interesting to see that I think he is going to get this one through today, if the coalition support it. There can be no harm in passing this amendment. When you think about it, it just seems to make sense that there be procedures for a merit selection of appointments. So, as we have in the past, Family First will support this amendment moved by Senator Murray.

Question agreed to.
