I want to follow up on the question that the Chairman put about getting proper engagement with the Department officials on this issue. Throughout Second Stage many Deputies raised the issues that are encountered with this mode of transport. There has not been any level of engagement with these groups so I propose that we follow up on that. I ask the Chairman to give me guidance on what he intends to do, as Chairman of this committee, to secure robust engagement with officials in order to get the changes that are needed and for Department officials to listen to these groups?
