Minister Farrell, before we hit the hard marker I was asking questions in relation to the position of the Australian Human Rights Commission on the cost regime that's proposed in this bill. The minister who was then at the table, Senator Watt, said the Australian Human Rights Commission had proposed cost provisions which were similar to section 570 under the industrial relations legislation. My understanding was that the Australian Human Rights Commission had actually proposed a different cost regime, and I just wanted to give you an opportunity to perhaps correct that record.
