No. Both Bills are the responsibility of the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform. We will provide the relevant information to Members.

Senator McFadden asked about the full roll-out of the BreastCheck service and the age limitation for users of the service. Her points will be forwarded on.

However, the Senator's points are well made and I will find out whether they can be responded to by the Minister, either directly or from the floor of the House.
