The Minister's reply alarms me to the effect that no matter how good the legislation is or how wide the consultation was and whatever the intentions were, for some unknown reason by virtue of numerous ways and means, it has been possible to frustrate the objectives of the legislation. That is not acceptable. I think the Minister would agree. Is that acceptable, to his mind?
