Referring specifically to the proposed amendments by the Labor Party, I am interested in what they seek to do—at least, the issue around penalty units and also the amendment around data breaches. They try and bring this legislation in line with My Health Record. That was one of the recommendations from the Information Commissioner at the inquiry that was held. Given that that was a recommendation from the Information Commissioner, I am interested in understanding the basis for opposing the legislation around increased penalties and data breaches.
