Mr Tony Burke (Watson, Australian Labor Party, Minister for Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities) Share this | Hansard source

I will follow up the points that were just raised and I get back to the member directly. There was discussion in my office yesterday that I have never actually used the summing up points that they prepare for me. I find it difficult because they write them prior to the debate ensuing. Nonetheless, today I will. I thank members of the House for their useful contributions and support of the Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards (Registration Fees) Bill 2013 and the Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards Amendment (Registration Fees) Bill 2013. These bills provide for the long-term viability of the Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards scheme, which makes a valuable contribution to water efficiency in Australia. I commend these bills to the House.
