In helping to persuade the Greens and the opposition a little bit more, the Minister for Health and Ageing is prepared to agree to your item 42740, which is the injection of therapeutic substances into the eye if that helps speedy passage of this bill. I do not make it conditional but I do seek the support to not have this determination. But it is not conditional upon that, as I understand it. I am told that it is not conditional. However, I am keen to ensure that we get speedy passage of this bill, so if that prevents you from making another 10-minute speech I would be really happy about it. If that could be a concession you would make, I would be even more enamoured.
