I'll have a look at that. I want to go to back to this one, about the cost order in part 1 of schedule 2. It says:

If the court finds that the respondent contravened the child-related order without having a reasonable excuse, the court may make any of the following orders (having regard to the seriousness of the contravention) …

Part (c) of that says:

an order requiring the respondent to compensate another person for certain costs incurred as a result of the contravention.

You've taken that out. You've admitted it in your amendments. Basically, you're taking that out of the act; therefore, you've taken out cost orders for the contravention of the court. You took it out of that section. Isn't that correct?
