The matters that will concern the Minister are in Part 4 but the matters related to periodic payments are contained in Parts 2 and 3. If it is the case that there will be reconsideration or further deliberation by the Department in respect of the open disclosure issue, it should not delay the other parts of the Bill going through. The periodic payments elements are crucial. I would like to see it all being put through rapidly but if there is to be some rethinking by the Department, it should not delay Parts 1 to 3, inclusive, of the Bill.
