I am astonished that we have spent so long on this section. It is utterly superfluous. Senator Cullinane has put his finger on it, concisely. What other way would a doctor form an opinion except using the clinical evidence in front of him or her? I am not accepting these amendments. They make no sense at all. They are utterly unnecessary. I do not think I need even read my note. I have made the point quite clear.
