Thank you. Whilst some of our concerns here have been addressed, others haven't been. I don't think it addresses the substantive issue we have about the grey area in relation to the secretary's power to make provisions directly around the declared program participants. That's what we have concerns about. Our concerns still stand, but I do acknowledge that there have been some changes.
