by leave—I move:

(1) Schedule 5, item 3, page 78 (line 15), after "the course.", insert "The provider must keep those fees in a separate account."

(2) Schedule 5, item 9, page 79 (lines 13 and 14), to be opposed.

(3) Schedule 5, item 13, page 80 (lines 4 and 5), to be opposed.

(4) Schedule 5, item 15, page 80 (lines 8 and 9), to be opposed.

(5) Schedule 5, item 18, page 80 (lines 21 and 22), to be opposed.

Could I indicate that in voting for these positions, if senators wish to support these amendments, they will be voting 'yes' for the first amendment and voting 'no' for amendments (2) to (5). I will put them as two separate blocks.
