I would like to thank senators for their contribution and acknowledge the continued tradition of bipartisan support for the veteran community demonstrated by the opposition and the crossbench's active engagement in this bill. As outlined, this bill gives effect to three of the veterans' affairs 2017 budget measures, which will all benefit the Defence and ex-service community. I commend the bill to the Senate.

Question agreed to.

Bill read a second time.
