I thank Ms Quinn for the presentation. Our party will make submissions to the public consultation. We have long argued for an independent commission and modernisation of the register so that is welcome. I will not ask any questions about the detail of it because Ms Quinn cannot answer that until after the consultation. The question I will ask is perhaps unfair. Does she have a notional timeline from when the consultation closes to when, if the outcome is some form of independent electoral commission, it might come into existence? I acknowledge that is subject to the drafting of legislation, securing of Government approval and such. In the best case scenario, will there be a 12 or 24-month period from the close of the consultation until whenever the recommendations accepted by the Government are implemented?
