As you know, it is factually false to say that it has been rushed, this having now been in the parliament for four months. But, to answer your question, so far as I am aware, the first approach came from the National Native Title Council through Mr Kelly. That is the first approach that I am aware of. I am also aware of the Premier of Queensland, Ms Palaszczuk's, letter to the Prime Minister asking that the problem be dealt with urgently, which I think, if my memory serves me correct, was by a letter dated 6 February.
