Just before the minister responds to Senator Ludwig, I wish to say that I hope it is the intention of the government to refer the final bill to a committee. In his response, I would ask the minister to consider whether the appropriate committee would be the Senate Standing Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs or the Joint Committee on Corporations and Financial Services, because obviously the bill is of great interest from a corporate law perspective and from the perspective of matters which arise through the APRA regime, all of which have been matters of interest to the joint committee. Maybe you are not in a position to give an answer now or today, Minister, but you need to think carefully as to which committee you send it to.
