I propose to withdraw opposition amendment (1) on sheet 7117, noting in doing so—as we did in the previous debate—that this amendment was moved by the opposition on the encouragement of stakeholders, in particular the National Farmers Federation and other farming groups. We are pleased that the government chose to adopt the amendment in a slightly modified form. Having just passed that amendment through the chamber, we now withdraw our very, very similar amendment.
The TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN: Opposition amendment (1) on sheet 7117 is withdrawn. Senator Colbeck, do you wish to address opposition amendment (3) on sheet 7120?
