No, it is a matter for us here at this committee and I will not allow the Minister of State to dismiss it. This committee looks into reform as well and it is a matter for the committee to ensure the policymaker in this regard learns from this process and gathers the information to understand what happened to determine whether the Department will change the policy. There is no point in repeatedly making this mistake.
