there are a series of time-critical bills, and I thank the opposition for their cooperation in the passage of a number of those last night. We look forward to working through a number of others today and tomorrow. Should the opposition be willing to indicate its support for the passage of the EPBC reforms, then of course the government would list that legislation for tomorrow and work with the opposition to secure its passage.

An opposition senator interjecting—

But, if you're not supporting it, Senator, then of course we must prioritise those time-critical bills, and that is what the government will do.
