I thank the minister for the clarification. I have reasons for making the statements that I made; I have no disgruntlement with the minister in the chamber, but we have sought for a very long time to get support for these amendments and have been stonewalled. It's not Minister Watt's fault, I just want the record to note that. I don't cast these aspersions lightly—there's a reason for why I've said them. But I thank the minister representing for his clarification on the scope of what those experiencing family and domestic violence means in this context.
