MICHAEL WOOD (Labour—Mt Roskill): Thank you, Mr Speaker. I'm very pleased to take a call in this debate. It's an important bill, and it's an important bill from both a parliamentary and constitutional point of view, because one of the precepts of the way that we work in a parliamentary democracy is that money that's appropriated from citizens through taxes has to be authorised through this Parliament, which represents the people from which we appropriate the money. And the reason that this bill is important—and I want to really emphasise this point, because it hasn't been reflected at all in any of the reflections from members opposite—is that this bill serves the purpose of appropriating money that will be used in the 2019-20 fiscal year that was not appropriated in the Budget that was set for the 2019-20 fiscal year. So the debate over this bill actually has quite an important constitutional and parliamentary function.
