I will be brief. While I have up to now been supportive of this Bill there are a couple of questions which the Minister has not responded to, although I will understand if she cannot do so. The Minister did not respond to the question from Senator Sean D. Barrett in regard to the reason the Angel of Death, the Grim Reaper calls to males, on average, five years earlier than to females. Neither did she respond to Senator Norris's point about marriage to a fairy. It is important in this festive season that we get answers to those two important questions.
