Paragraph G of section 2A of the Defence (Amendment) Bill states that the provisions on the making of public statements or comments are without prejudice to the purpose of an association of representing members. In other words, we have clarified it now, and can go back to the Attorney General prior to going into the other House. Nothing can prevent the members identified there, members of RACO and PDFORRA, from speaking on behalf of their representatives. I have no issue with that.
