Again, Chair, we cannot stress enough that we are extremely grateful for the diligence of the committee in giving this such great consideration. We are mindful of the huge workload of this committee, particularly in relation to housing. We are grateful that it has given this such time and consideration and has brought in such a disparate range of groups and experts to strengthen it and to ensure we have robust legislation and that we get this as right as we possibly can. I pass on our appreciation, as well as the appreciation of our officials, who have worked incredibly hard over a long number of years to reach this exciting point. We look forward to the committee’s report and to considering it. Hopefully, we will move this process on to see the establishment of the commission towards the end of 2021.
