My question is whether it is important that that is explicitly mentioned in the Bill or whether it is fine that the Bill goes ahead as it is without mentioning these things. That is what I am asking the witnesses. I think we are all agreed on the importance of it, but does it need to be in the legislation? We are looking at the legislation and recommendations on it. Do we need to make recommendations that this is in the legislation or is it fine for it not to be mentioned?
