I take the point that Senator Rice is making in relation to Myanmar. We have, as I've previously advised the chamber, discussed these matters at length in the estimates context. I would be happy, as I have previously done this week, to meet again with the Joint Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade in relation to these matters. But I do not think that this is an appropriate amendment for this bill; it's not in the right place. If the Senator wishes to take up this issue in a more appropriate construct, then of course the chamber would consider that.
