Thank you. You see, Senator Waters, unfortunately from that comment I'm going to assume that you also do not want to support the Commonwealth government's Integrity Commission. The fact of the matter is we have a model. The bill is out there. We have funded the model. We have released our bill to implement it. This should be something that is not just bipartisan. It should be a multipartisan approach to putting in place a model that ensures that integrity is pursued in a manner which respects due process and democracy. Clearly from your comments, Senator Waters, you are also not interested in doing that. If you are interested in a political witch-hunt, nothing more and nothing less, then that is not something we are going to agree on.
