I meant to say at the start that a good explanatory note is attached to the Bill and was presented to the committee. The Library and Research Service has also put together a substantial document that highlights many of the issues that the Deputy raised. It provides a glossary of terms, a breakdown of the committee's pre-legislative scrutiny session, our 26 recommendations from that and where they have been incorporated into the Bill. The departmental officials also provided briefings. I believe a briefing was organised for everyone yesterday as well. I have all of these documents and can pass them on to the Deputy if he requires, but I agree that it is a complicated area.
