This will be my final question if I can get an answer from you. In relation to the original bill that was tabled and the amendments I now have in front of me: I need you to take me to what are the key differences in terms of inserting back in 'reasonably foreseeable employee'. My understanding is that, under the bill that was tabled that the minister spoke to, the concept of 'prospective award', 'covered employees' and 'reasonably foreseeable employee' was removed. We're now adding that back in by way of section 524B, with section 12, and all the subsequent sections that add back in 'reasonably foreseeable employee'. I just want to make sure I've got the key differences absolutely certain.
