I thank the Minister for coming in today. In many ways this discussion has dispelled a lot of the myths out there regarding IPAS. An awful lot of progress has been made since IPAS has come in under the Department of justice. We are ramping up the first-instance decisions but I note that there seems to be a slight increase in appeals. As the number of first-instance decisions increases, are there any plans or proposals for dealing with potential backlogs in IPAT?
