Thank you, Chair. I will shortly ask you to put the question, but just to be clear: we have no position from the coalition. We have a position from Senator Birmingham, who was good enough to say he would object. We have a policy vacuum from the coalition, as we do in some other rather important areas. We have a policy commitment from the government which stands in direct contradiction to the drafting of the law. So people will have to make of that what they will. I have certainly made up my mind. I commend this amendment to the chamber.
