The Minister can look to the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs on her left or the official on her right to elicit information on the two Bills I propose to raise. According to replies I have received on this matter, it was intended that the child and family support agency Bill would be published and enacted in this session. Its commencement would facilitate the new child and family support agency in assuming statutory responsibility for all services for children and families as of January 2013. We are almost at the year's end. When will the legislation come before the House?

On the adoption (amendment) Bill to give legislative effect to the changes promised on foot of the passing of children's rights referendum, when will this legislation present for address and enactment?
