I thank Mr. Harris. He spoke a little about the accountability structures and who he is accountable to. Has he any concerns about the confusion within those accountability structures in some parts of the Bill and how that might affect his work? I am thinking of heads 11, 23 and 28, which all state the Commissioner is not accountable to the board whereas head 25 states he or she is. Does Mr. Harris have any concerns about who he is accountable to?
