I will just express the Greens will not be supporting these amendments. We have sympathy with the government's position on a number of these. In particular on advocacy, we have already passed amendments on that issue. I have been satisfied with the government's responses on compensation. If you could share some of that information that you are sharing with Senator Xenophon, specifically around the South Australian amendment, that would be appreciated. On the communication one, again, I agree that that issue is already covered in the clauses, so we will not be supporting them although I understand the intent.
