The State should not find itself having to police these definitions in any way. Even if the State were to take that step, I suspect that, in practice, any such statement would be formulated at a sufficiently high level of abstraction to be of no particular use in dealing with the requirements we are setting out in amendment No. 13. I hope the Senators will accept the reason for my reluctance and not press the amendments. It would be great if we could have this done this evening.
