Minister, we just got a whole bevy of amendments that constituted the changes that the Liberal Party required in order to back in this piece of legislation. We literally received those while I was on my feet giving my second reading speech. That was when they came into my email inbox, so I've had about an hour to glance through them whilst also trying to pay attention to what's happening in the chamber. My first question is: can you please run us through the changes that the Liberal Party asked you to make to this bill that are now being reflected in the amendments that you've just tabled? What do they do?
