I am still concerned that it is in the Bill. The Minister spoke about taking the wording in isolation but it explicitly states the CEO shall not question or express an opinion on the merits of any new policy of Government or Minister of the Government on the merits of the objectives of the policy. It seems very restrictive and almost dictatorial in that sense.
