Labor will not be supporting these amendments, even though we understand and have some sympathy for the NXT approach on this. I think the key issue for us is that we need an assurance that the government is willing and capable of enacting these reforms within a short time frame. The sector has waited too long, and the botched reform effort would be devastating. So, Minister, can you give us an assurance that these will be acted on very quickly?
