I want to respond very briefly to Senator Shoebridge's comments and, rather than answer the particular questions he has raised, offer him a briefing from our minister on these particular issues and note the complexity of the law that we're talking about today and how quite a lot of the provisions we're talking about need to be taken in the context of the broader guidance the ABF uses and the defences in the legislation. But, again, we're in a non-contro period of the program, so I will just commend the bill to the Senate.

Question agreed to.

Bill read a second time.
