Thanks, Minister. I might take you to the specific clauses of the amendment that we are referring to here. There were many proposed amendment changes circulated, so maybe we can begin by confirming that the language, as I have it here and as was circulated, is still the current language. If we go to page 2 of sheet PA112, we've got:

(6) Schedule 1, item 36, page 26 (lines 9 and 10) …

The effect of that item is to:

… omit "relating to the participant's need for NDIS supports", substitute ", in so far as the report relates to the participant's need for NDIS supports arising from impairments in relation to which the participant meets the disability requirements or the early intervention requirements,".

Is that still the current wording as proposed by the government?
