Very quickly—I should have made myself more clear—I note that under the bill the minister still doesn't need to consult directly with stakeholders like, for example, environment groups or recycling groups. The word is very clearly 'may' consult. The consultation amendment is drafted so that we make it compulsory that the government seek that advice.
The CHAIR: The question is that Australian Greens amendments (1) to (4) on sheet 1052 revised be agreed to.
