Senator Boswell, I have some additional information that might assist you. In relation to the baby bonus and the means testing, 16,000 families will be affected. In relation to family tax benefit B, it is anticipated 40,000 families will be affected, and 85,000 people will benefit from the measures that are within this bill. I hope that that helps.
