Could I get a clarification on the point that Senator Hanson's making? There's currently also a section 70NBE. That's in the act. I also want to explore some issues that Senator Hanson raised in relation to the ICL. There are certain things in the legislation we have before us. Senator Hanson raised some issues in relation to the ICL, particularly in relation to discretion. That's actually not in the legislation we currently have before us. That was the point Senator Hanson was actually making. You have then said it is in the guidelines. Senator Hanson might want to explore further what those guidelines are, where those guidelines are and when those guidelines are going to be printed. Is there an amendment being moved by the government to address this, because it actually was bad drafting and there was an issue with that particular section?

You have circulated a government amendment that also deals with costs in relation to the enforcement of child related orders. I want to confirm something in relation to the answer Senator Chisholm gave. I understand it was incorrect and you've circulated a provision that removes proposed section 70NBE.
