It would appear that there are no further speakers from the government side. I would like to close the debate and thank those senators who spoke in support of this motion, Senator Wright from the Greens and Senators Conroy, Bilyk and Lines, who all made terrific contributions. I hope that the speeches that I and my colleagues made have been sufficient to change the cold-hearted approach of the government in respect of this matter. I strongly urge senators opposite to join us and reject the Prime Minister's penny-pinching ways in respect of this matter and support our disallowance motion.

Question agreed to.
