I am happy to see our examination of this proposed Bill done quickly and efficiently, but I would not feel that we had done proper and full pre-legislative scrutiny of it if we have only heard from the Department and not from others. It was useful to hear from the representatives of the Department today, but I would like to hear from a wider range of people. Given the history of this matter, including the fines, the mistakes made with the planning process before and everything else in this context, it is exceptionally important for us to get this proposed legislation right. It would, therefore, be useful to hear additional voices and perspectives.
