I apologise for not being here for many of the contributions but I was with a thalidomide group. I will read the submissions but I also have a couple of questions. I came into this meeting thinking that deletion was the right approach but I am open about this and I will read the arguments that have been made. If there was a proposal to delete the current constitutional provision, would any of the groups oppose it on the basis that it wants to go further?
