I want to remind the Labor Party again that we have 38 amendments before the chair. This is very important legislation. Senator Dastyari has been talking but has not raised any substantive issues about those amendments. I compliment Senator Muir, who is in the chamber, who did actually get down to the substantive debate and ask some very good questions. I bring the Labor Party's attention to the fact that we have had the politics all week. In fact, we have had the politics for the last two weeks in this chamber, every day. We have heard it all before. Let's actually get on with the substantive debate and let's address this bill. However long that may take and however thoroughly you want to scrutinise these amendments, the Greens will be here, but we want you to address the amendments before the chair.
