Mr RUDDOCK (Attorney-General) (5:51 PM) —I move:

I would just like to thank the members of the House as well as those in the Senate for their contributions. I make the point in particular in thanking them that the Senate amendments to the Native Title Amendment Bill 2006 were to implement one of the Senate Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee reports and its detailed consideration. I do not wish to detain the House by outlining the detailed amendments. These amendments were as a result of very careful consideration. The native title system is inherently complex. While the existing regime provides a sound framework for resolution of native title issues, it needs to deliver outcomes more quickly, and the amendments made to the bill, along with other amendments in the package of native title reforms which we will be introducing shortly, are aimed at delivering better outcomes for all parties in the native title system. I commend the amended bill to the House.
