I thank all honourable members for their contributions to this debate. I want to thank the honourable member for Ryan for her contribution. I also want to note the cooperation of the opposition in ensuring that this bill is speedily passed through the House and, indeed, that it will be passed speedily through the other place so that at least there is no legal impediment to the football grand finals being broadcast in high definition. Of course, it is entirely a matter for the broadcasters to do that.

Thanking honourable members for their contributions and recognising the importance of this bill being passed as quickly as possible, I commend the bill to the House.

Question agreed to.

Bill read a second time.
