The Greens will be supporting this last amendment. Anything that increases the transparency of the influence that money has on this building and the decisions that emanate from it is a good thing. We would like to see donations capped at $1,000 for everybody. We do not think that big money should play a role in our democracy. This doesn't do that, but it is a small step in the right direction, so the Greens will be supporting it.

Progress reported.
