I thank the minister. While I realise there is a spark of willingness to start addressing this issue, can I press the minister and the government on what the next step is and how they consi­der it is going to occur. Are you putting in place a process to consider further amend­ments to the act or are you putting in place a process that will in fact carry out the intent of this amendment without actually amend­ing it? What are you physically doing to pursue what I think would be a significant step in furthering our marine protected area system?
