I thank Professor Crowe. Some of the areas in the Bill are technical. I am interested in the idea of public consultation, which was previously referred to. Sometimes consultation can have a really positive impact on a process. Sometimes it can distract from what the process is really about. In the context of best practice internationally, is Professor Crowe aware of types of consultation or any groups that have had a particularly beneficial impact in a consultation process?
