Can we be given a list of those 12 priority codes? If I am reading the Safe Work website correctly, first aid in the workplace to me would have been potentially a priority area, given that this is a bill and a regime designed to enhance safety in the workplace, but I look at the code and the release date was 26 September and the closing date for submissions was 18 November 2011. So can you give us an indication of whether first aid in the workplace is one of the priority codes? Also, when will it be finalised and released to the public, and from which date will it apply?
