I hope it will be accepted by the Government, but I am working on that. We should do something about this problem and not criticise everything. We should work together and ensure this Bill, and Senator Higgins' Bill, is effective. Senator Higgins had the courage to do something about this problem. I am disappointed to hear that some will oppose the Bill. We should come together and identify the problems with her Bill, and go forward with it. We should do something, and we can do it in this Chamber. When the girl I referred to was being bullied, I Iobbied Deputies to do something about it but nothing was done. I am in a position now where I can do it myself, so let us do it. I congratulate Senator Higgins on her Bill, which I hope will be passed by the House.
