I thank Ms Craig, Ms Dolan, Mr. O'Keeffe and Ms Morgan. Most of the questions I had wanted to ask have been asked but I have one more. Mr. O'Keeffe mentioned that he would like to see gender-based harm included in the scope of the Bill. Will he expand on what he means by this? In his opening statement, he said that he is of the view that the media commission should have greater discretion in the setting and implementation of advertising limits. Will he describe in more detail the rationale for wanting discretion in this regard? What steps should the new media commission take to ensure and to support its full independence? Do the witnesses feel there is enough independent diversity in the media? Do they see this diversity being allowed more of a voice in the future?
