As a trivia buff I appreciate the irony of a leader of a party in one jurisdiction presiding over the contribution in this chamber of the leader of the opposing party in another jurisdiction! It is probably the first time it has happened.

I thank all senators for their contribution. I would also particularly like to thank the Community Affairs Committee for their work. I ask the Senate to note that the Minister for Health has agreed to look at the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner's recommendations and to use them to inform our public awareness campaign about the opt-out trial. I commend the bill to the Senate.

Question agreed to.

Bill read a second time.
