Perhaps if I could just ask the minister in the first instance if she could give a bit more detail by way of background around the privacy issue that has been raised. I know there has been a fair bit of discussion in the chamber today around those concerns about the privacy issues. I note that Senator Moore raised this a little while ago. While we are broadly supportive of the bill—there is no doubt about that—I think it is very important if we could have on record the detail around the consideration the government gave to this particular area and the consultation that was taken with industry and, if available, with parent groups.
