Does the witness now acknowledge that it is within the council's gift to set its own rules and regulations in accordance with section 57BD of the original Act and amended by the legislation we dealt with last year. Therefore, it is completely within the council's gift to outline the regulations in the form it will report, as it has done, as long as it is laid before the Houses and has the consent of the Minister. Did the witnesses seek to give effect to the amendment which was made to the legislation that the office would be allowed to give a description of the upheld claim?
