First, on indulgence, whilst there is much on which the Labor Party disagrees with the government on health, I commend the minister for bringing forward this bill. Many people across the parliament and political parties have been working on this, and I recognise on our side the member for Throsby and also, on the government benches, the member for Murray and the member for Leichhardt. I know the Australian Greens have also been working on this. This is something that has, I hope, the parliament's support as we go through the processes. I commend the minister.

Debate adjourned.
