I thought you might have recalled that it is the original start date of the CPRS; but it may have slipped your mind. We think that was an appropriate place to backdate it to given we have been saying that for some time. It seemed a logical place given it was the original start date and people may have made decisions around that start date.
Question put:
That the amendment (Senator Birmingham's) be agreed to.
The committee divided. [13:38]
(The Chairman—Senator Parry)
Question negatived.
