We always take on board advice from the other side of the House if it is positive, proactive and sensible. Certainly the amendments tabled by the Opposition in this case were all of these. However, the HSA does not have to publish in the context of prohibition notices. This is left up to the discretion of the HSA for good reason which was explained in the other House.

I again thank Senators for their kind words in the context of the support they are giving this Bill today. I know this will have a positive impact on the chemicals industry, human health and our environment, which is what we are trying to achieve.
