I move amendment No. 40:

In page 36, line 32, to delete “4 years” and substitute “1 year”.

I welcome the Minister. The Bill states:

"A report in respect of the matter referred to in subsection (1)(b)—(a) shall be provided to the Minister within 4 years of the establishment day,"

As much of what we are attempting to do in the Bill is well known, why is there a need to wait for four years? Can matters be speeded up rather than having four more years of costs imposed, as the National Competitiveness Council and the Competition and Consumer Commission have stated?
