Senator Cormann’s amendment moved today to delay and effectively block the establishment of the agency has a purpose. It defies logic that, 12 months after this was announced, months after it has been publicly debated and only days after it was supported as noncontentious by the Liberals in the Main Committee, they are now against it. It makes no sense.

Debate interrupted.
