On this section, I will make only a small point. On a number occasions in the course of this Committee Stage, sections have been replaced. Again, I understand why that happens. It denies Senators the opportunity to amend the section that is being inserted by way of an amendment because we do not see it until the amendments are published. As a broad statement of policy, I think it is undesirable that this would happen but I understand why it is happening in the context of this Bill.
