I agree with the contribution that has been made by Senator Ruston in response to the amendment moved by Senator Steele-John, and I can advise that the Department of Social Services is leading work at officials level right now. Presumably that will work its way up through decision-making processes around nationally consistent guidelines for assistance animals. That work has certainly commenced, and we should keep an eye on it.
