As I indicated in my earlier remarks, it is the government's view that we have the balance around these things as best appropriate in the circumstances of this being a trial. We would indeed acknowledge some of the issues that Senator Bernardi has raised, but we would use the trial as an opportunity to see how matters proceed. That being said, we will of course accept the will of the Senate.
