This is an important point as it is a challenge for all of us because of the time squeeze and when the amendments have been made available to us. In terms of carrying out a proper regulatory impact assessment, what is the Minister's time-line in terms of publishing the remainder of his amendments across the rest of the Bill? It is a challenge for us on this side to participate meaningfully and for others beyond the committee who will want to make submissions to the Minister and the Department on foot of the amendments when they are published. Where are we with the rest of them? It is not best practice to just publish them in as short a period of time as the first group of amendments. The Minister cannot disagree with that.
