That is not something that the government is planning on doing. I have stepped you through what this bill does and how it strengthens our appointment safeguards. I understand you have a different view on the bill, but I'm perplexed as to why this modernisation of four agencies to make sure that there is more adherence with the APS Code of Conduct is controversial. We're certainly happy to answer your questions, but my characterisation of modernisation is correct.
