Tonight, Labor, led by Senator Dastyari, have put themselves on the side of multinational tax dodgers by working hard to delay the passage of legislation which will help the government and help the tax commissioner more effectively fight multinational tax avoidance by giving him the powers he needs—I am just putting that on the record. So the Senate might want to reflect on that as we consider a vote on this amendment and on the Greens amendment in relation to this bill.
