I asked this question in private session but again it is important it is put on the record. That means, for example, after this Part is enacted and commenced, the powers the regulator currently has over an AHB will apply to all of the activities of the AHB. I ask specifically in relation to the challenges that arose in the Peter McVerry Trust because of the blurring of the housing and non-housing functions. There would be no limitation on the AHB regulator to fulfil its functions post the enactment and commencement of this Part, as per how it operates today. It will still have the same scope and powers.
