We are hearing that the Minister is not convinced on that point. In fact, he does not believe it is the right way to go. However, it highlights the point that what we need is an implementation plan with regard to those reviews. The industry is currently working off the 30 recommendations in the review, of which that to which I refer is one, but we have not had a clear response from the Department that this is not something it will pursue. If that is the case, the Minister should put the implementation plan together and say that he does not believe that recommendation is one that should be pursued. Let us have the clear picture; put it all on the table.
