Just so I understand, are you saying that the government and, if and when the legislation passes, the parliament have said that certain things are sacrosanct, and that that means an Australian worker who seeks to negotiate an arrangement with their employer that benefits them for a variety of different reasons, like the hypothetical woman that I described earlier, can't have that, because ideologically that is unacceptable and sacrosanct?
