I agree with Senator Ruane. We do not want to be in a situation where we will have to come back here in six months' time when a fee has been introduced. Like other speakers, I deal with people who are constantly using their phones to ring the RTB. Overall, nothing should happen without any such proposal first being brought to this House. We do not want to hear in six months' time that a fee has been introduced and is being charged, particularly for those who are the most vulnerable. There should not be an opening to introduce a fee overnight.
