The additional powers for the CEA have been broadly welcomed and I would not take away from that. Will resources match them as there will be an extra requirement for them to do this? It is important and I urge the Minister of State to make it clear that the expectation is that this will be watched. No one wants to see something that is efficient, passes the SME test and so forth and could work out quite well for people highjacked and used as an instrument to smother debate. In that regard, I hope additional resources will be provided to match the additional responsibilities.
