Senator TAMBLING (Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for Health and Aged Care.) (12:56 AM) —The government is opposed to Senator Brown's proposed amendment to the object of the act. It does two things: it proposes to reference the precautionary principle as defined in clause 10 and, as I have mentioned in relation to the Democrats amendment, the government proposes to accept the opposition's amendment to clause 4 of the bill to reference the precautionary principle subject to one minor change. This brings the reference to the precautionary principle into accord with the referencing of the precautionary principle in Rio 15.
