We can give consideration to that, if Mr. O'Leary is available. With no other members indicating I will make a very brief comment. I strongly endorse the views of members with regard to the issue of greater discretion. It is a reality that is needed in a variety of situations as Senator Conway has alluded to. Mr. O'Leary has worked in or given service to the free legal aid sector and the Free Legal Advice Centres, FLAC, previously. As someone who was not exposed to the work of the Legal Aid Board previous to taking up my position, could he provide me with a simpleton's guide in the difference between the role of the Free Legal Aid Centres and the Legal Aid Board? Perhaps Mr. O'Leary could share a crisp explanation of the critical differences.
