The committee will follow up on this issue to request that there be engagement with and feedback provided to the witnesses' organisations regarding their submissions. Apart from what we are doing ourselves in this context, the Bill itself be scheduled for Committee Stage with us relatively soon, and we will take up these points then. There is no substitute for personal experience, and in that vein, I have some questions for Ms Kennedy, whose daughter has autism. She has an assistance dog. What has her experience been in the context of the operation of e-scooters in public now? I am interested in the personal story in this regard and what the experience is like day-to-day for Ms Kennedy's daughter.
