Thank you. This is absolutely relevant to what is behind the Greens' disgraceful, shabby deal to get themselves more bums on seats. Senator Sterle is addressing this. I accept that, on his earlier points, he may perhaps have been a little broad—everyone has been a little broad today—but right now he is absolutely relevant to this piece of legislation and the motivation which has driven the Greens to look after themselves at the expense of their principles.
