As I said earlier, the issue of outworkers is a difficult one. Obviously the outworkers have a case. I was thinking about the amount of power that would be given under this legislation and I have to say that Senator Marshall made some sense in his plea. Rechecking my conscience, I think that erring on the side of looking out for those workers is the right thing to do. I apologise for wasting the time of the chamber for four or five minutes, but I appreciate the plea that Senator Marshall made.
