Thanks Senator Cash. Even though I'm a very fast writer and a very good listener, I wasn't able to keep track of the mountain of questions Senator Cash just asked. But what I can tell you is that I'm advised that the amendments were finalised at about 4 pm this afternoon—so, not terribly long before the debate commenced. I'm also advised that Senator Pocock and/or his office have been consulted about the drafting of these amendments and I'm also advised that no parties external to government, whether unions or employer groups, were consulted on the draft amendments.
