One of the things I have done is make sure that when Labor senators make outlandish claims they are appropriately corrected in this chamber. I will not take you back over that particular history, Senator Lundy; that may be a debate for another day. I have made it very clear to the AFL what my views are on this particular matter. The AFL are WADA compliant. The AFL have signed up to the WADA code, and that is very important. But in my view, with the additional testing that they do, the AFL can now take a real lead, look more closely at their sanctions and have some tougher sanctions and a more open and transparent reporting process.
