I will do that, Mr Acting Deputy President. Senator Brown said that he had not approached me to discuss this legislation, despite my obvious tendency towards considering it favourably, based on my voting record, because he believed that it was me who should have consulted with him, not the other way round, and that I should be listening to the people of the ACT. I want to place it on the record that, since this legislation was introduced back in June, nobody in the ACT community has approached me, other than journalists, to express any view about the matter.
