December, but I am quite positive that those discussions will go well. I know that we will have something in place before the end of the year. Certainly, there will be something passed in the December session.

I thank and acknowledge Mr Barr for the input on this debate. I encourage and urge the Canberra Liberals to go away and look at the research. I urge them to have another look at the legislation and consider changing their position on such an important matter as problem gambling and the impact it has on so many Canberra families.

Question put:

That the bill be agreed to in principle.
