Mary Henry (Independent)

Senator Dardis and Senator Bannon made good points, but we have gone quite far already in examining costs because the term "under economically and technically viable conditions" is used in the Bill. Do we need to insert another reference to costs? As is often the case, people constantly plead costs. The Bill refers to the techniques being reasonably accessible, but something that is enormously expensive could not be described in that manner. The Minister could consider telling people that if something is expensive, they do not have to get it. However, it could be desperately important that they do obtain it.
