The government welcomes the support of other parties in relation to the Bankruptcy Legislation Amendment (Fees and Charges) Bill 2006 and of course it will strengthen existing anti-avoidance provisions in the Bankruptcy Act 1966. Senator Murray has touched on many aspects of that and of course this is something which there is a great deal of concern about in the community. I commend the bill to the Senate.

Question agreed to.

Bill read a second time.
