As I understand it, maps are produced in relation to the Australian economic zone, the 200 nautical mile zone. I understand that most maps do not have the 12-mile territorial sea or the three nautical miles, which is the state jurisdiction. But, without making any promises, I will pass on that suggestion because, if we are in the business of creating maps, it should not be too difficult to seek to incorporate something in the next round.

Bills agreed to.

Bills reported without amendment or request; report adopted.
