I will come in again later, but based on that, I ask Ms McPhillips to ensure there will be proper engagement because this is what public consultation is about. Derogatory media reports are out there in respect of the composition of the committee. I cannot say whether those are justified or not, but I would be concerned. This is primary legislation, and the headline in one of our local newspapers referred to the Kinahan and Hutch gangs not needing to go through this process. This is a little disparaging of anything we are trying to do as legislators.
