I acknowledge the government's consultation with the opposition in relation to the scheduling of the additional sitting days as replacement days for those that were cancelled following the death of Her Majesty. Given that consultation and engagement the government undertook, the opposition will not be supporting the amendment, and respects the government's scheduling of the sitting days. It is for the government to then ensure that those sitting days and scheduling make the most effective use of the legislative program and that the program can work within the sitting days as they have proposed.
