Thank you. You are a lawyer, you are a senator, but I am just a humble fitter and machinist who happened to be a union official for some time, and I know that 'have regard' has no power. So what does 'have regard' mean? It has no legal standing. It places no binding legal obligations on the state government. So maybe you can explain why you would say that section 6H is the argument to underpin this bill, because it has got me a bit bemused.
