I allowed some latitude to Senator Mullen at the outset to make some remarks which were balanced, and for the Minister to respond. I advise Senators that I am not going to open up a general debate on why the referendum took place, the result and so on. There are specific amendments and I would like Senators, insofar as possible and practicable, to engage on the amendments tabled.
