Thank you, Mr President. Not necessarily. I do not think that by implication I agree with everything that Senator Williams says. But this is a very serious issue, and we do need to make sure we have a balanced approach and we have an approach that takes into account all of the things that need to be considered, unlike those opposite. What do they want to do when it comes to foreign investment? They want to have a limit of $1,000 million for any purchase coming into this nation to go to the Foreign Investment Review Board. That is how much attention to detail they have paid to this particular area. (Time expired)
