I was wondering whether the government could give us an update on when we might actually see some amendments in printed form. I understand there is one circulated by Senator Xenophon. We are ready to deal with that, but I was wondering whether we could be given an indication as to when and if any other amendments are likely to materialise. What does the minister believe is a reasonable period of time for opposition and other senators to consider those amendments?
