Senator Barrett and I have been around the houses in this regard on a good few occasions. He knows that I do not accept his comments. The reason for this restriction has been laid out in numerous previous debates. I have outlined the qualitative measures being taken in the taxi industry on many occasions. They constitute the main thrust of what we are trying to do to improve the industry. I have made these arguments previously. I understand what the Senator is saying, but I completely disagree with his ethos in this respect.
