Mr. Wayne Stanley:

We were of the view, in the initial discussions on the Housing Commission, that that would have been a fruitful use of the commission. When it came to the wording, we initially proposed that it would be continued in this committee and done in a deliberative democracy process. That policy work that might go with it could have been progressed within the Housing Commission. We support that. It would be useful. Professor O'Cinneide raises one of the issues with that, which is that the different political parties might have a different view of how one can go about vindicating that right. That might cause some conflict in a campaign. Ultimately, the drive towards vindicating people's rights, how we might achieve it, and what might flow from that, would be useful addition.
