I wish to inquire about a Bill which may be of some assistance when dealing with agitated backbenchers. It is the mediation Bill. After this morning's session it is becoming more desperate. Will the Bill be published by the end of the year?

I thank Deputy Maloney-----

I think it should be guillotined, by the way.

Is Deputy Maloney not into mediation?

There has been an epidemic of that.

I am not sure whether mediation would work in here because there must be willingness. Mediation only works if every party is willing to participate, and there is nothing that will satisfy some people on the Opposition benches. The last thing they would ever agree to is mediation. The heads of the mediation Bill have been approved by the Government and it is expected to be published later this year.
