We have previously discussed this quite a number of times. I say in response to the contributions made by Senator Williams and Senator Boswell—who has left the chamber—that we are not acting alone. I do not know why it is that the National Party and some Liberal senators continue to come into this chamber and assert something that is simply not true. Action is being taken in other countries. It may not be the action you wish to be taken.
