While recognising the intent with which Senator Xenophon is moving this amendment, the coalition believe that there is an understanding that, within the Basin Plan itself, this will be dealt with. Our belief is that it is rather too prescriptive, which will lead to unintended consequences, and the opposition will not be supporting the amendment.
