I'm not going to go into great detail but this is what has happened. If you read Hansard tomorrow, I hear Mr. Ballantyne saying that he has no problem with the principle of the bill. Those were his opening comments. The opening comment was, I've got no problem, the public agrees with this, accountability is a fine thing. He went on at great length then, to explain all the problems with the detail. That's what we're talking about, getting the bill out there so the people can deal with the detail. If he has no problem with the principle of the bill then, obviously, he's not going to vote against the principle.
