I will be very brief because this is all in line with Senator McDowell's consistent approach, which is to ensure that the Government has the widest possible frame of reference in making appointments. I congratulate the Minister on the appointments that were made recently to the Supreme Court and other courts. It was a very good move and it shows very clearly that the existing situation is operating reasonably well. I strongly support Senator McDowell's in what he is attempting to do here.
