I will take advice on that issue because I thought we actually traversed this on Thursday morning. The issue that gave rise to the discussion about NCAS was for the purposes of determining what was on land that was previously cleared. That was the context of the discussion. For that purpose, some of the issues Senator Milne raises are not relevant to the proposition before the chamber. We do not accept Senator Milne’s suggestion that the model is flawed and I do not want people to believe that my silence on that is acquiescence.
