I agree with my colleague, Senator Gilroy. Courts have given interpretations to the words "conduct" and "practice". They have two different interpretations. The Minister's amendment is being put forward because we have interpretations. The reason this amendment is being tabled is to ensure there is no misinterpretation in court proceedings at a future date or in any kind of hearing in regard to this aspect of the legislation. The amendment should be supported.
