Senator ALSTON (Minister for Communications, Information Technology and the Arts) (10:16 PM) —I suppose I could always give an assurance that we will act as expeditiously as possible. Whether I can give you an assurance that will rubber-stamp whatever comes out of the review process is another matter. Obviously we would expect that it will be a sensible, plausible and persuasive report and that there will be much in it to commend itself to the government. I cannot, as I say, give you a blank cheque. But certainly the whole object of the exercise is to acquire, as quickly as possible, an expert assessment of any deficiencies in the powers of the ABA and ways in which we can fill any gaps.
