The nature of the organisation changed from when it was initially set up but it does not seem that the arrangements have changed accordingly. That is the point I would make. I will leave it at that.

Returning to the point on property assets, it is proposed to amend the financial reporting framework to address some shortcomings and to provide guidance and certainty for Departments for some classes of buildings and replacement costs. I presume this includes matters such as depreciation. What shortcomings does the Department see there?
