Yes, but does council not have a duty to examine some of those risks? It seems to me that the approach is to headline the risks, say that they are not enough because the risk of not doing it is also a big risk, and then not investigate these risks further. What further work is happening in terms of climate, copyright infringement and jobs in this space? Are these areas where discreet work is happening? I accept the point and this is not a personal criticism of the witnesses as volunteers. If the council needs resources to investigate this so that the Government and the wider State can have a balanced discussion about it, then the council should ask for those.
