We are opposed to both of these amendments. Firstly, with respect to 6A subsection 3, we do not think the definition is relevant and accordingly we are opposed to the insertion of 'quarter means a period of three months'. Secondly, we cannot support (6) either. The government considers that Infrastructure Australia should publish its evaluations in real time to assist industry and state governments address Infrastructure's findings in a timely manner. We do not want to restrict Infrastructure Australia in determining how and when it publishes such material.
