This goes back to the previous amendment in that after conducting a review of the Bill, and if the ongoing operation of the Bill provides small challenges that need to be remedied or changed, regulations are far more effective in getting those changes quickly. The legislative process, while important for a Bill such as this, can take time. As the Deputy said, regulations are laid before the Houses within a 21-day period so there is a chance for scrutiny and engagement. I have seen it work in this House whereby regulations can be challenged. I cannot accept the proposal to delete the section.
