I have a series of questions around those amendments. While I commend the government for taking on a number of the recommendations from the committee, there are some that are not necessarily being done through amendments, and there are also questions around those amendments and what is in scope or not. Should we go through issue by issue, because I am sure that Senator Fifield has questions as well? I also have a few questions around amendments that were made in the House of Representatives to the compensation provisions, which Senator Xenophon also brings up, and may clarify some of the issues Senator Xenophon is trying to address through his amendments. Perhaps we could do compensation first. I am looking around the chamber to see if that is okay with people.
