The Bill would give rise to a resource-intensive system. It is very demanding legislation. Performance indicators and outcomes are either confused in nature or are absent from the Bill entirely. Regardless of the intention behind it, the measure is technically flawed and ill-prepared. On that basis, it should not be allowed to proceed. At best it represents a poor attempt at what might be considered good intent. That is the best thing I can say about it.
