Given the importance of the issue and the urgency we have heard from our other witnesses today, it is quite disappointing that the ASAI gives the impression that it has adopted a lackadaisical approach to this. There is certainly no sense of urgency involved, which is quite worrying. When we are addressing matters in this Bill, it is important that we listen strenuously to what our other witnesses have said because they represent the health interests of children and the protection of children’s health.
