Katy Gallagher by leave—In relation to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Bill 2016, I move opposition amendments (1) to (4) on sheet 7980: (1) Schedule 2, item 15, page 61 (lines 5 and 6), omit the item, substitute: 15 Section 293-1 Omit "$300,000", substitute "$200,000". (2) Schedule 2, item 17, page 61 (lines 9 and 10), omit the item, substitute: 17 Section 293-10 Omit "$300,000", substitute "$200,000". (3) Schedule 2, item 18, page 61 (lines 11 and 12), omit the item, substitute: 18 Subsections 293-20(1), 293-155(1) and 293-200(1) Omit "$300,000", substitute "$200,000". (4) Schedule 2, item 19, page 61 (lines 14 and 15), omit the item, substitute: 19 Subsection 133-15(1) in Schedule 1 (note) Omit "$300,000", substitute "$200,000". We also oppose schedules 3 to 6 in the following terms: (5) Schedule 3, item 2, page 63 (line 20) to page 65 (line 2), subsections 292-85(3) to (6) to be opposed. (6) Schedule 5, page 77 (line 1) to page 78 (line 29), Schedule 5 to be opposed. (7) Schedule 6, page 79 (line 1) to page 80 (line 25), Schedule 6 to be opposed. With regard to senators having the opportunity to consider these amendments, I acknowledge that they were circulated quite late this morning. I would say, however, that these amendments go directly to the position that the Labor Party announced publicly when we considered the revised government bills, once they had been released. I would like to draw senators' attention to item (5): Schedule 3, item 2, page 63 (line 20) to page 65 (line 2), subsections 292-85(3) to (6) to be opposed. Item (5) relates to non-concessional contributions. There is an error in that item. The item as drafted seeks to oppose subsections 292-85(3) to (6). I would like to amend that amendment to reflect opposition to subsection 292-85(2)(a). That is a fault of ours. I am sorry if that is not very clear. Taken as a group, these amendments implement Labor's position, which seeks to lower the higher income superann
