As I said at the start, I certainly welcome the provision in the Bill in respect of the rent-a-room scheme and the exemption from the financial assessment. That is worthwhile.

On the pharmacy part of the Bill, if you want to call it that, I imagine that the core purpose of this is to expand the role and scope of how we manage medicines. It is essentially giving the Minister more power to introduce regulations by amending the Act. Is that essentially what we are trying to do?
