It's obviously a decision for any parliament, including future parliaments, as to whether they decide to amend legislation that is passed, but I've already indicated why we can't agree to your amendment, Senator Pocock. I know that it's well intentioned, and I repeat my earlier statement that we will be considering the matter further once we receive the High Court's decisions. We'd be happy to work with you on any concerns that you have.
