I thank the witnesses for attending. I have a couple of questions that have not been touched on. There has been discussion around legislation pertaining to dogs and there was a Government announcement this week. With regard to the Department of Rural and Community Development, are there any plans or discussions on what the new legislation might mean for the Department and any additional costs that might be associated with that? Does Ms Hurley expect any additional powers to be transferred to the Department or existing powers to be transferred to other Departments?
