I am not at all against it. I am just trying to get there as quickly as possible. It is not something I would force through or try to guillotine through. I am throwing it out as my thinking at this stage on how we get there as quickly as possible. I will engage with all parties. We would only do it if we had broad agreement that there was a consultative approach we could take which we could do off-line. This might be quicker than requiring pre-legislative scrutiny, which can take time based on committees and all they do. I very much want to work with the committee on this.
