The coalition believes that there is already plenty of discretion built into this legislation. After a CCA, a number of outcomes can occur, including a job capacity assessment, an eight-week non-payment period or, indeed, no action at all. We believe that there needs to be some certainty in this legislation and, accordingly, the coalition will not be supporting these amendments.

Question agreed to.
