On the basis of the parliamentary secretary's response to my question, it is quite clear that the RSL, the Vietnam Veterans Federation and Legacy have not been provided with the opportunity to look at this amended EM to get their feedback. On that basis, I cannot see how this chamber can possibly proceed with this matter until those organisations have seen the addendum. I think that should be done as a matter of urgency and I think this bill should be delayed until that occurs. I move:

That the committee report progress and ask leave to sit again.
