I will just indicate that Labor will not be opposing these amendments. We think they are a second-best option. With all due respect to the senator: he's a lion when he's out there in the Fin Review but a bit of a lamb when he's in here sucking up to the coalition. This doesn't go far enough. It doesn't protect the trade union movement. It doesn't protect working people. If that's the best you can do, Senator, I suppose that's the best you can do. But we won't oppose it.
