In concluding my remarks, having spoken earlier today, on the Migration Amendment (Notification Review) Bill 2008, I note I appreciate the contributions that senators made although I think Senator Fierravanti-Wells wandered off the subject a bit to try to make a few political points on other matters at the end of her contribution. I will not seek to address those points other than to say that I think most of them were wrong and highly misleading. But I do appreciate her contribution on the actual bill and the support of the opposition for these amendments to the Migration Act which relate to notification. I thank all senators for their contributions on and support for the bill.

Question agreed to.

Bill read a second time.
