I thank the senator for his contribution. I am just checking if we have any information that we can give you on that matter. It may require me to talk a little longer than we would perhaps have expected while I am seeking that information. I am sure you will be understanding, Senator Cormann. I am sure you do not want me to start talking about the football on Saturday night, but I could not possibly let the opportunity pass to draw to your attention the result of the Collingwood-West Coast Eagles match, and wish you commiserations on an excellent season.

I am advised that if the interest they receive rightly relates to the changes made by the previous bill they will be entitled to keep it; if unrelated, they will not. I hope that rests your concern. Having passed on that information, I commend the bill to the chamber.

Question agreed to.

Bill read a second time.
