The objective of the bill is quite explicit in section 3. It says:
The object of this Act is to increase investment in small and medium Australian enterprises by the Commonwealth participating in, and investing in (together with other persons), the Australian Business Growth Fund in accordance with this Act.
That is quite explicit. However, I understand your concern. We are working out how to make that more explicit as part of the shareholder agreement, and I think that should be an adequate response.
