Deputy Brophy has a point with regard to the definition. What I suggest, and what I said with regard to amendment No. 12 is it would be worthwhile narrowing down what we mean by community representative. I am happy to take the amendment and see whether we can do a little bit of work on what we mean by the definition of community representative so it is more aligned to the needs of the parole board and what would be the useful experience of a community representative. I understand the general point the Deputy is making.
