I understood it had been. I suspect they did not expect it to come up quite so early. I have certainly ticked off on it to be circulated. This bill is the provisions of the Social Services Legislation Amendment (Queensland Commission Income Management Regime) Bill 2017. We do agree that it should be referred, but 20 June means in a week's time, and that is too short a time frame to carry out an inquiry into quite a substantial piece of legislation and a substantial program. I seek to amend the date it is due to report from 20 June 2017 to 9 August—in other words, we get the July break to have a look at this legislation.
