Yeah, and I agree to an extent. voice-verified

However, so is the alternative not doing anything? voice-verified

Because it seems like the groundswell of support is for some sort of... I think the thing is, at the end of the day, people go, we don't need rules about it. voice-verified

But legislation sets the scene, it sets the tone. voice-verified

And so the government with this particular ban it's considering, it was like work from home laws, right? voice-verified

The government can't enforce rules on the private sector, but they can set it in the public sector and say, this is the standard that you should adhere to. voice-verified

And what then happens... voice-verified

is the private sector falls into line. voice-verified

And so we would have similar bans in our workplace, Chris, where they say, well, we don't want you wearing these. voice-verified

Which is voice-verified

But yeah, so I think it's one of those things that people do expect some sort of regulation and legislation on this. voice-verified

The government had argued when announcing this cap that it would have saved around $750 million over the next three years. voice-verified

And it insisted veterans could still get more than $5,000 if they demonstrated, quote, clinical need. voice-verified

But critics say that that would just force the most badly injured vets to jump through more hoops to prove they needed care. voice-verified

piling on paperwork and delaying treatment for the people who need it most. voice-verified

And yesterday, we did see that capitulation come from the Veterans Affairs Minister, Matt Keogh. voice-verified

He issued a statement saying the cap was off the table and also that an earlier decision he made to not meet with veterans over the issue was a mistake. voice-verified

I think that is a gross understatement, voice-verified

that he refused when they came to discuss this and he said he wouldn't sit down with them. voice-verified
