Senator XENOPHON (1:54 PM) —I raised another query in relation to this: I understand that the Semple review is looking at the whole issue of the jurisdiction of the various federal courts. I think Senator Brandis may have greater knowledge than me on this but, as I understand it, the Semple review of the jurisdiction of the various federal courts, including the Federal Magistrates Court, may well be recommending that the Federal Magistrates Court be amalgamated or no longer be in its current form. Is that something that the government can enlighten us on?
