While I do not mean to be argumentative, section 86(1)(a)(vii) provides that licence conditions have to be included in the licence on cessation and abandonment. The licence stays in force under section 95(1) and can only be surrendered if agreed to by the EPA. Furthermore, the EPA can keep enforcing the licence and adding conditions to it to make sure there is full compliance. There is more in the Bill than what the Senator is attempting to insert. We have lost our train of thought somewhere.

Amendment put.
