I think there have been some discussions with Senator Pocock about this paragraph of the amendment. This paragraph of the amendment seeks to refer the bills to the Senate Environment and Communications Legislation Committee. Those bills have already been referred to the Senate environment and communications committee and, unless someone knows something different, that inquiry will continue. I don't think there is actually a need for this. I don't know whether Senator Pocock wants to pursue it.
