There is not consensus. You have a very strange understanding of 'consensus'. You are going with the majority view; you are not going with consensus. This is at the heart of the discussion that we are having. You are swapping from a consensus view that is currently in the Native Title Act to a majority view. It is no wonder we are at odds; you do not even understand the term 'consensus' by the sound of it. There is not consensus. The south-west claimants are not the only ones who do not consent to this bill. But let's go back to the question that I asked: why do you not know—when this is one of the key issues at the heart of people's concerns—about the extinguishment of native title. I think there are many people who want to know which ILUAs extinguished native title. Which ones are on this list that did not have all—let's abandon the term 'consensus' and go to 'all'—named applicants sign the agreement?
