The yelling and screaming! I did not interrupt Senator Conroy once. The yelling and screaming is another piece of evidence of everything that you need to know about Senator Conroy's approach to this legislation. We are interested in a reasoned debate. We are open to conversations with interested parties in the Senate over this next week on how perhaps through relevant amendments this legislation can be further improved. But we do really hope that the Senate will give this bill a second reading today so that we can do some more work over the next week and perhaps come back in the committee stages of the bill with some further amendments later in this sitting fortnight. With those few words, I commend the bill to the Senate.

I table an addendum to the explanatory memorandum relating to the Superannuation Legislation Amendment (Trustee Governance) Bill 2015.
