My counter argument is that the Bill undermines the integrity of the regulatory body which can create difficulties. Several people working in the industry have concerns about this aspect and that is why I tabled my amendment. It does not augur well if there is a suggestion that the confidence or whatever of the body will be undermined. I withdraw my amendment.
