    Yes it's a situation that Xenophon may try to manipulate.
    If my memory serves me correctly Xenophon has previously indicated general support for the Bill.
    It would also be an advantage to Xenophon if there was a DD election with the lower quotas disadvantaging SHY.

    So maybe Xenophon could propose amendments unacceptable to the Government and we go to a DD election.

    It may depend on how the Government sell the need for a DD to the public. Some voters may be bemused.
    The Australian Building and Construction Commission wouldn't be top of the list as issues for many in the community.
