There is scope within the legislation to do what the Senator has talked about. I am conscious that the purpose of what we are trying to do here, which is what I mentioned in my initial reply, is very much around the consolidation of existing legislation. In that fact, I am trying to keep it to that as tight as possible.

I fully understand and sympathise with the points that the Senator made about restoration. She has made a valid case but the issue is covered within what is there.
