That is my understanding. As I understand it, it means that for those members of parliament elected prior to 2004, who are in a different superannuation scheme from those elected post 2004, it means therefore that there is that ability to roll various allowances including a travel allowance into the remuneration package by virtue of these amendments. I think that was one of the issues that Senator Brown was concerned about.
