I was in fact winding up, but, talking about winding up, perhaps the opposition is trying to wind up the speakers. These bills should be exempt from the cut-off order. Under any other circumstances, I am sure the opposition—who I know have also been very keen to help people with disability who have been caught up under this flawed approach in the past—would have let this through. I urge them to address this issue so that it does not get held up in this chamber for no other reason than the opposition trying to turn this into a chaotic place and frustrate the process. They have picked on the wrong bill. They should change their minds, support this through and let us get on with making sure that people with disability who have been waiting for so long actually get their compensation.
